November 4
Jazz at Johnstown: Mark Redmond and Chris Colloton Trio play The Táin
8 p.m. Johnstown Castle

One of the musical highlights of the Festival this year. Jazz at Johnstown again brings together jazz and Irish trad to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the seminal Horslips album, The Táin, with a few additions from other sources such as The Book of Invasions. Wexford piper Mark Redmond will join Jazz at Johnstown frequent headliners, the Chris Colloton Trio. The coming together of these great musicians will demonstrate how both trad and jazz can easily incorporate aspects of each other into a stunning fusion of improvisational brilliance. Mark has toured globally as a soloist and ensemble musician. This is a one-off occasion to see these four eminent musicians playing a classic from the Irish repertoire as an ensemble.

Jazz-Trad Blast: Sat, Nov 04 at 8 p.m.

After the three weeks of day to day activity, the Wexford Arts Festival comes to a close this weekend, not with a whimper but with a jazz-trad blast at Johnstown Castle.
One of Ireland’s best pipers, Wexford’s own Mark Redmond, joins forces with the Christ Colloton Trio in a special Arts Festival finale concert on Saturday at Johnstown Castle.
With a nod to Wexford hosting the Fleadh next year, this concert is a fusion of jazz and Irish traditional music and will celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of The Tain by Horslips.
This is a unique occasion to see Mark, who tours globally as a soloist and ensemble musician, and the Chris Colloton Trio headline the Jazz at Johnstown autumn series, which has already featured concerts by Jean Toussaint and Cormac Kenevey.

Mark Redmond/Chris Colloton Trio



On Saturday, November 04, Jazz at Johnstown brings together again one of Ireland’s best pipers, Mark Redmond, and the brilliant Chris Colloton Trio for a night of Irish trad-jazz fusion.

When Mark and Chris played together at Jazz at Johnstown in June, the concert sold out quickly. They showed how both trad and jazz can easily incorporate aspects of each other into a stunning fusion of improvisational brilliance.

This is a rare occasion to see these four eminent musicians revisit a classic from the Irish repertoire, The Tain by Horslips, as an ensemble. Unmissable. Featuring Lorcan Byrne on drums and Tom Maxwell on keyboards.
