Closing Concert of CIPFA-Ronan O’Hora Piano Recital

Fri 12 April

Trinity College

“His sound is lustrous; his playing is lyrical and full of feeling; he thinks not only of the passing notes but of the overall form. Moreover, O’Hora is blessed with meticulous taste – there was not a vulgar, swooning or overstated passage in the program.” The Washington Post
