Brian Irvine’s “The Totally Made Up Orchestra” is a unique orchestra that blends composition, improvisation, words, sounds, movements, noises, gestures, humour and much head scratching into a unique and captivating performance.
Brian is an Ivor Novello award winning composer from Belfast. As Artistic Director of Dumbworld, he’s at the vanguard of community-music making and composition in Ireland and the UK.
He has collaborated and made work with artists from vastly different disciplines including Seamus Heaney, Primal Scream, David Holmes, Joanna Macgregor, U2 and Jennifer Walshe, as well as thousands of groups and individuals from all dimensions of society including ex-paramilitaries, young offenders, victims of violence, special needs groups, residential homes, community choirs, gardeners, footballers, bankers, homeless associations, call centre workers and schools.
Unfortunately sign ups to take part in the orchestra are full, but there are still free tickets available to see the performance.
The show will take place at the Glasgow Kennedy Centre, The Quay, Ballina at 2pm on Sunday 6th Oct, get you tickets HERE
