Strung Series #3

Zoe Conway – Traditional Irish Violin
 

Zoe is a prodigious talent equally at home in both traditional Irish and classical styles. She has performed across the globe, both as a solo artist and also playing with international acts such as Riverdance, Damien Rice, Rodrigo y Gabriella, Nick Cave and Lou Reed among others! Not only an exquisite performer, she also composes music and she has recorded two solo albums to date which showcase both her original compositions alongside older traditional tunes.

Zoe currently tours with her husband, guitarist John Mc Intyre so we're delighted to steal her away for this project.

Naturally there is great variety in the styles of the pieces, their only instruction being to compose with a traditional influence in mind. Each piece stands on its own merit, and each is deserving of credit.
