Chopin Études

“Exceptional things only happen when the passion of individuals nourish an idea,” Pärt tells me. “When Eamonn approached me in 2006 and asked for a new work, I felt this passion. It, and the story of Ireland, inspired me to createThe Deer’s Cry, which ever since has been very close to my heart. I gratefully remember my collaboration with him and his society. The music world needs such committed fighters as Eamonn Quinn.”Arvo Pärt speaking to The Guardian about Louth Contemporary Music's Eamonn QuinnThe Guardian June 2017

The 2025 instalment of the Louth Contemporary Music Festival takes place as usual at various venues in Dundalk over a weekend in early summer. Events start on the evening of Friday June 13 and continue the next day from lunchtime to nightfall.

On Saturday 14 June 2025 at 1 p.m. in St. Nicholas Church of Ireland, another entry to the labyrinth of Lang is to be discovered in a work from his Monadologie series, where he bounces off music of the past. In this instance, fragments and fractures of Chopin’s Etudes follow the Lang rule of repeat, transform, move on. The Belgian pianist Daan Vandewalle makes it happen. Funded by the Arts Council and supported by The Arts Service of Louth County Council. Supported by RTÉ Supporting the Arts with the friendly support of the Ernst Von Siemens Music Foundation, Louth County Council Festival Grants Initiative 2025 and the Goethe Institute.
