This Haydn journey can be enjoyed in all its glory at the Whyte Recital Hall\, RIAM\, Dublin on May 15th. \nIn this concert\, Classical style unfolds in real time. Michael Haydn’s Symphony in D major opens in sunshine\, warm and radiant. Joseph Haydn’s Violin Concerto in G major is more personal and playful\, full of sparkle\, charm and intimate conversation between Violinist Carolin Widmannand orchestra. Haydnsurprises us as his Symphony No. 45 “Farewell”steps into darker\, more restless territory\, becoming dramatic\, daring\, and unexpectedly moving. What begins in light gradually reveals deeper shadows\, ending not with grandeur but with one of the most touching gestures in all music. \nNo stranger to ICO audiences\, violinist Carolin Widmann brings rare clarity\, intelligence\, and a sense of discovery. Her lean\, luminous tone suits Haydn perfectly. Every phrase is shaped with intention\, every gesture sparkles with wit and colour. She draws listeners from the warmth of Michael Haydn to the emotional intensity of Joseph’s “Farewell” Symphony\, setting the stage for the drama that follows. \n \nOverall\, Brothers Haydn is a journey through three shades of the Classical spirit – light and shadow\, charm and tension\, public brilliance\, and private emotion. It’s a chance to hear familiar works reframed\, and lesser-known music revealed in all its beauty. \nWidmann & ICO play at the Whyte Recital Hall\, RIAM\, Dublin at 7.30pm on May 15th. Tickets here. \nThanks to the valued support of The Arts Council / An Chomhairle Ealaíon\, Irish Chamber Orchestra continues to delight\, surprise\, and inspire audiences.

Carefully balanced blocks of colour and strong vertical lines provide structure and integrity\, while gentle brushstrokes and tonal shifts give the works movement. \nMcAleenan has previously exhibited artworks at The Market Place Theatre and Arts Centre in Armagh. He has also exhibited and sold internationally in cities such as New York\, Singapore and Hong Kong. Now he presents this fascinating solo exhibition at Sol Art Gallery. \nThis exhibition brings together a new body of work in which McAleenan reengages with the quiet moments that shape everyday experience.

His music emphasizes tone\, restraint\, and narrative flow\, favouring feel and space over technical display. Whether performing solo or with an ensemble\, the focus remains on musical conversation and emotional clarity. \nBased in Ireland\, Julyo has developed a reputation for live performances that prioritise listening-room dynamics rather than high-volume presentation. His approach draws from traditional blues language while remaining contemporary in form\, allowing room for improvisation and interaction between musicians. The result is a sound that feels grounded and personal rather than retro or stylised. \nIn recent years\, Julyo’s work has included studio recordings and international collaborations\, alongside a consistent presence on the live circuit. His performances are often described as intimate and atmospheric\, shaped as much by the room and the audience as by the material itself. \n\nJulyo performs at Arthur’s Pub 28 Thomas Street\, Dublin 8 on Thursday\, 12 March 2026\nDoors: 7:30pm | Show: 8:30pm\n\n\nTickets: €18 via Eventbrite\n\nTo learn more about Julyo’s work see his social media channels:\n\nInstagram instagram.com/JulyoOfficial \nYouTube youtube.com/@Julyo  \nOfficial Website JulyoMusic.com  URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/live-blues-and-jazz-at-arthurs-pub-dublin-julyo/ LOCATION:Arthur’s Pub\, 28 Thomas Street\, Dublin 8\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Gig Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/FRONT-Julyo-Arthurs_Pub-1-copy-2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20260302T113000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20260327T170000 DTSTAMP:20260609T094703 CREATED:20260318T114401Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260318T114403Z UID:113510-1772451000-1774630800@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Sm(All) Folk Festival DESCRIPTION:Sm(All) Folk Festival returns to Axis this March with a joyful programme of theatre created especially for children and young audiences.
