Dubliner Malachy Robinson is principal double-bassist of the Irish Chamber Orchestra and plays with many small chamber groups, notably the Far Flung Trio. He specialises in the historical performance of early and Baroque music, and has always relished the adventure of New Music. His solo album, The Irish Double Bass, was released last year.
He will be appearing at West Cork Chamber Music Festival in Bantry, from June 24 to July 3. www.westcorkmusic.ie
