Listen "The sound of County Clare with Martin Hayes; and Piotr Anderszewski connects Bach, Beethoven and Brahms"
Episode Synopsis
Martin Hayes is one of the world's most celebrated fiddle players, and a very influential figure in Irish traditional music. He draws from the musical tradition of County Clare and interprets it within a wider contemporary context, and has collaborated with an impressive slate of artists from Paul Simon to Yo Yo Ma. A longtime friend of the Music Show, Martin Hayes speaks with Andy ahead of his 2026 Australian tour.Piotr Anderszewski is a famously exacting pianist from Poland who only performs pieces he feels he can contribute to in an original and personal way. He has performed with many of the world's great symphony orchestras, and is on tour in Australia throughout November performing repertoire of Brahms, Bach and Beethoven. And for Aus Music Month, a new song from Stella Donelly's brand new album Love and Fortune.
