Sean Rafferty presents from Belfast on St Patrick's Day. Guests include Codetta and Cuig.

Sean Rafferty presents live from Belfast's MAC on St Patrick's Day, with Pascal and Ami Roge, Brian Irvine, Michael Longley, Mark Chambers, Paula Chateauneuf, Codetta and Cuig.

Sean Rafferty takes his In Tune salon of live music and chat to The MAC in Belfast for St Patrick's Day. Today his guests include international pianists Pascal and Ami Rogé, composer Brian Irvine, poet Michael Longley, countertenor Mark Chambers with theorbist Paula Chateauneuf, the chamber choir Codetta and Irish traditional musicians Cúig.


Pascal and Ami Rogé have performed at concert halls all over the world, including New York's Carnegie Hall, London's Kings Place and City Recital Hall Angel Place Sydney.

Belfast-born composer, Brian Irvine's work reflects an obsessive love of music creation in all its forms. His music is a highly personal concoction of punk, improvisation and contemporary classical!

Michael Longley will read a selection of his poetry. He is one of Northern Ireland's foremost contemporary poets and is renowned for the quiet beauty of his meditative lyrics. 

Codetta is one of Northern Ireland's acclaimed chamber choirs. Under artistic director Dónal Doherty the choir has performed at the BBC Proms and it played a key role during the 2013 Derry~Londonderry, UK City of Culture events.

Countertenor Mark Chambers has performed all over the world and works regularly with many of the world's leading choirs and ensembles and will sing with theorbist Paula Chateauneuf.

Cúig, meaning 'five' in Irish, was formed in late 2011, and is made up of five young musicians from Co. Tyrone and Co. Armagh. They are establishing themselves among the most promising artists on the Irish traditional music scene, incorporating Breton, Galician and American bluegrass tunes into a set-list which is already steeped in the Irish tradition.

Live music and the arts: broadcasts more live music than any other radio network. Classical music is its core. Genres include world and new music, jazz, speech and drama.
