Pat Coldrick to perform at FOTA HOUSE

On Friday, 16th May, at 8.00 pm, Pat Coldrick – one of the finest and most versatile guitarists in Ireland, will perform in the elegant Drawing Room at Fota House.

“To have Pat visit and perform at Fota House is to get a rare opportunity to enjoy this Irish classical guitarist in a close up and personal setting in the charms of this elegant Regency House”. Margaret Martin, Event Manager at Fota House added “Coldrick’s skillful and atmospheric “connection” with his audience is an art form in itself. It is like no other classical performance in this country. His very easy going, laid back and unassuming approach, his interaction with his audience and his philosophy of “entertaining rather than educating” is a breath of fresh air. However, it is easy to be misled by this approach as Pat starts to play one can see the dedication, passion, skill, his deliverance of each piece, his superb ability as a player and performer. He has the ability to make us laugh and equally move us to tears!!”

Coldrick has recently returned from a performance in St. Petersburg in Russia where he played to an audience of over a thousand people. He has appeared on the Late Late Show, the IFTA awards; two sell out concerts at the National Concert Hall, and with the Degani Ensemble with leader Alan Smale, leader of the RTE National Symphony Orchestra. Pat has performed at concerts in Slovenia, Austria, France and the US. He has also performed at the Derry Guitar Festival and the Wicklow Arts Festival and Clonakilty International Guitar Festival.

For all music lovers, this is an evening not to be missed.
