Ö÷²¥´óÐã Radio 3 Recitals at the Belfast International Arts Festival 2024

Random draw open

The very best in chamber music, performed by three international stars!

´³´Ç¾±²ÔÌýÖ÷²¥´óÐã Radio 3 for three Invitation Concerts with the Z.E.N. Trio – pianist Zhang Zuo, violinist Esther Yoo and cellist Narek Hakhnazaryan – as part of the 2024 Belfast International Arts Festival. The Trio met as Ö÷²¥´óÐã Radio 3 New Generation Artists in 2015 and have since performed together across Europe, China, Canada and the US, and Australia.

While the trio’s name, “Z.E.N.†is an acronym for the three artists’ initials, it also hints at their philosophy to music making – the forgoing of the self for total togetherness.

They’ll be making their Northern Ireland debut at St.Mark’s Church Dundela – the CS Lewis church in the east of the city – with a repertoire including Rachmaninov’s Trio élégiaque No.1 in G minor and Shostakovich’s Piano Trio No.2 in E minor, Op. 67.

A wonderful opportunity to hear musicians at the top of their game, and contrasting programmes will be performed each evening!

Tickets will be allocated by random draw.

You can register at any time until 8am on Monday 30 September.

You can apply for a maximum of four tickets per recording.

Good luck!
