New sounds from IrelandIrish double bassist and composer Caimin Gilmore joins internationally acclaimed artists Kate Ellis and Lavinia Meijer for an evening of music that moves between contemporary classical, folk, experimental sound, and electronics. The program features works by Philip Glass, Gabriella Smith, Anne Cleare, and Benedict Schlepper-Connolly, alongside Meijer’s own compositions. At the centre of the evening is BlackGate, Gilmore’s debut record, released in 2025, featuring his genre-fluid composition for double bass, cello, harp, and synthesizer.
Known as one of Ireland’s leading young double bassists, Gilmore emerges as a new compositional voice, building captivating sounds as he experiments and allows the music to flow freely. He is joined by Irish cellist Kate Ellis, Artistic Director of Ireland’s Crash Ensemble, and Dutch harpist Lavinia Meijer, a Sony Classical recording artist whose recording of Philip Glass’s Metamorphosis went platinum in the Netherlands.
