* LATE CHANGE TO PROGRAMME*

We regret to announce that, due to a family emergency, Craig Taborn has had to withdraw from his concert at the New Ross Piano Festival on Thursday 22nd September. In his place, we are thrilled to announce that star Ukrainian pianist Vadim Neselovskyi will perform his Odessa Suite instead.

Vadim has been described as “one of the greatest pianist/composers out there now” by renowned US pianist Fred Hersch and “a true genius” by legendary vibraphonist Gary Burton, with whom Vadim has worked.

In light of events in Vadim’s homeland, we will be dedicating this concert to the people of Ukraine, and there will be a collection at the concert, with proceeds going to Immigrant Council of Ireland to help Ukrainians in Ireland to apply for family reunification for loved ones impacted by the crisis.

We wish Craig and his family all the best, and look forward to welcoming him to New Ross in the future.
