Dermot Dunne & Martin Tourish, accordions

JS Bach arranged by Dermot Dunne: Goldberg Variations, BWV 988

DICMF is delighted to return to the enchanting Casino Marino, a masterpiece in Palladian architecture on the north side of Dublin, for a performance of JS Bach’s towering work, Goldberg Variations with a difference. Accordionist Dermot Dunne joins forces with Altan’s Martin Tourish for two performances
of Dermot’s own brilliant arrangement of Bach’s masterpiece in this truly intimate setting designed by the distinguished British architect William Chambers.

Ahead of these performances at Casino Marino, we look forward to presenting a number of free admission events in other historic buildings, including a short talk by Dr Edward McParland and bite-sized performances by Dermot Dunne and Martin Tourish, on June 4th.

Presented in partnership with the Office of Public Works
and in association with Casino Marino


Casino Marino, Malahide Road, D03 HH70 www.casinomarino.ie |+ 353 1 833 1618 The Casino was designed by Sir William Chambers in the late eighteenth-century as a pleasure house for James Caulfeild, 1st Earl of Charlemont. It is widely acknowledged as the most important example of neoclassical architecture in Ireland. The Casino is operated and managed by the Office of Public Works and is only 15 minutes from Dublin’s city centre.

Please Note: Access to the building and its interior is via stairs which may cause problems for those with mobility issues.

Organized by

The Dublin International Chamber Music Festival (formerly Great Music in Irish Houses) is Ireland’s longest-established chamber music festival and was founded in Castletown House in 1970. Since then, the month of June has been a musical summer must for Irish chamber music devotees. Our objective was and still is, to present concerts of chamber music, “the music of friends” in the sort of smaller, intimate spaces for which the music was originally written, away from the more formal setting of a concert hall. Over the years we have offered Irish audiences the opportunity to hear some of the finest international and Irish artists perform a vast range of chamber music in a variety of Ireland’s most historic and notable buildings, spaces that would not normally resound with beautiful and exciting music. Stately Irish Houses are juxtaposed with some of the country’s iconic, modern buildings showing the diversity of Irish architectural and interior design. From that small sapling planted in Castletown House, the great oak that is now the current Festival has grown and is recognised widely as a prestigious platform for world-class musicians.

DICMF is a non-profit making organisation and depends on the support of sponsors and Friends to continue its work into the future. It is funded by The Arts Council / An Chomhairle Ealaíon and the Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht.
