NMD26: Diatribe Stage - Sophie Cooper + Eimear Reidy // Strider

Wednesday, 15 April 2026
About this event
In collaboration with cellist Eimear Reidy. Originally written for a brass quintet and shaped by ideas of recycling, reuse and field recording, the work transforms chopped and elongated musical material into an echoing sound landscape rooted in place.
The concert also marks the European debut of Strider, the long-running duo of violist Joanna Mattrey and artist Steven Long, whose alchemical procedures fuse field recordings, found objects, derelict instruments, keyboards and bowed strings to create ambient soundscapes in miniature.
Presented by New Music Dublin with support from the Arts Council and in partnership with RTÉ and the National Concert Hall.
