Ordnance Survey’s Nomos: O’Riada Reimagined 9pm


A composer that brought the Irish musical tradition into the 20th Century and became a central figure in the country’s cultural landscape, Seán Ó Riada’s compositions form the basis of this extraordinary new piece of work from Dublin composer Neil O’Connor, aka Ordnance Survey. With Nomos, O’Connor presents his live electronic and visual reworking of the classic Mise Eire score, alongside other Sean O’Riada classics. (Running Time: 1 hour)

Acclaimed composer and musician Dr. Neil O’Connor (Ordnance Survey @somadrone) offers an insight into his creative process, and explores the creation of his new work Nomos, which reworks classic scores by Séan Ó Riada.
