Sold out - Bloomsday - Celebrating James Joyce's Ulysses (National Concert Hall)

Details

## Join for songs and readings celebrating Bloomsday, which is a joyous celebration of arguably the greatest novel in the English language, Ulysses by James Joyce. Please arrange your own ticket (€20 - €22).

## An accomplished musician himself, the works of Joyce are musical landscapes, laden with references to songs and operatic works of the day.

## Accompanied by the outstanding pianist, David Wray, Dublin-Born soprano Sandra Oman, in the role of Molly Bloom, will perform such vocal delights as*: Love’s Old Sweet Song; The last Rose of Summer; I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls; The Holy City; Sweet Rosie O’Grady; Oft in the Stilly Night; Silent, O Moyle; Habanera (Carmen); The Lass of Aughrim.*

## Acclaimed actress and television icon Mary McEvoy (Biddy, Glenroe) plays the role of Nora Barnacle, Joyce’s wife, reading extracts from Ulysses and giving the audience a flavour of Dublin in 1904. Molly and Nora, the great loves of Joyce’s life (fictitious and real), converse and reminisce. A concert for lovers of Bloomsday, Joyce or simply beautiful songs of yesteryear*!*
