Eclectic mix at West Cork Chamber Music Festival

Early evening recitals at the West Cork Chamber Music Festival emphasised the variety of talent on offer, reports Declan Townsend

AN absorbingly eclectic mix might be the most accurate way of describing what I have heard in the first three evening concerts of this year’s festival.

There have been solo recitals, duos, quartets, and quintets, composed as long ago as 1640 and as lately as last year, and the standard has been, as usual, first class.
