Midwinter Festival SEASONS:
Lenneke Ruiten and Finghin Collins
Sunday, January 22, 2023 at 3:00 pm
The Hardiman Ballroom
Closing Concert and Reception
Following last night’s wintry bleakness, the radiant Dutch soprano Lenneke Ruiten – by now a firm Galway favourite – sweeps away the cobwebs with an eclectic and varied programme of songs inspired by the other seasons of the year – from Spring to Summer into Autumn and back to Spring again! Heartwarming and invigorating, this recital, once again featuring Finghin Collins at the piano, will leave you reveling in the promise of longer days, new growth and sunshine.
