The lingering days of midsummer will be the perfect time to delight in the music of two leading jazz artists of our time: Malaysian-Australian bassist Linda May Han Oh and pianist Fabian Almazan.

These two hugely accomplished performers, improvisers and composers visit Ireland this year with over a decade of stunning musical collaborations, and their concerts will highlight mostly original works that express virtuosity and imagination in generous measure.

Almazan draws profound inspiration from his Cuban heritage, its natural environment, and his musical training in jazz and classical idioms—by bringing this together with Oh’s prodigiously gifted bass-playing and compositional talent, the result is a recipe for awe-inspiring musical brilliance. Displaying musical sensitivity and audacity in perfect proportion, these two players deliver an impeccably paired and unforgettable musical experience this June.
