A fabulous double event of film and live music with internationally acclaimed duo Ilse de Ziah and Ian Date.
Begin the evening with the award-winning documentary Living the Tradition, a visually stunning and deeply moving journey into the heart of Irish music and the origins of the hauntingly beautiful Irish Airs. Filmed on location across Ireland, the film follows acclaimed cellist Ilse de Ziah as she uncovers stories, landscapes, traditions and melodies passed through generations. Rich with breathtaking cinematography, rare musical insight and heartfelt interviews, Living the Tradition invites audiences into the soul of Ireland through its music, people and history.
Then stay for an unforgettable live concert as Ilse de Ziah and Ian Date take the stage in an intimate performance filled with passion, virtuosity and connection. Their mesmerising cello and guitar interplay moves effortlessly through Celtic, Jazz, Classical and World influences, creating music that is atmospheric, cinematic and completely original. From delicate Irish airs to fiery improvisation and rhythm-driven compositions, the duo bring warmth, elegance and extraordinary musicianship to every performance.
Their acclaimed debut album Here & There reflects the spirit of the live show — sophisticated, adventurous and emotionally powerful — with audiences regularly describing the experience as uplifting, transporting and unforgettable.
More than a concert, this is an immersive evening of music, storytelling and cultural exploration that draws audiences into another world.
