He’s Vlad to be back playing on Leeside

Acclaimed Slovakian violinist Vladimir Jablokov is set to return to Cork’s Triskel tomorrow, Friday, with a new show.

Jablokov’s hand picked violin, cello and piano ensemble will begin with a unique arrangement of Vivaldi’s iconic ‘The Four Seasons’, accompanied by visuals based on the original notes published nearly 300 years ago.

The second half of the concert features some of the most popular pieces in Vladimir’s repertoire including Brahms’ ‘Hungarian Dance No 5’, Strauss’ ‘Radetzky March’, the theme from Schindler’s List, ‘If I Were A Rich Man’, and more audience favourites. Vladimir headlined performances in the National Concert Hall, INEC, University Concert Hall, Cork Opera House, National Opera House and more. He is also preparing his biggest production to date to be staged at the 3Arena in December.

The ensemble line-up is Vladimir Jablokov on violin, Katie O’Connor, also on violin, Sokol Koka on cello, and Inna Firsova on piano.

Doors open at 8pm and tickets are €27.50 or €25 for concession. See triskelartscentre.ie for more information and booking.
