Young stars working in perfect harmony
THE future of classical music has found two safe pairs of hands. Sitting in the park on a bright and blustery afternoon, 26-year-old Sam Perkin and violinist Eoin Ducrot, 18, are relaxing after the premiere performance of Perkin’s second violin concerto.
The concerto was written for, and dedicated to Ducrot, a calmly stellar young violinist who Perkin describes as “a born soloist”. Performed with the Cork School of Music Symphony Orchestra, it will feature again in two upcoming Proms concerts at Cork City Hall.
