  • Cathy Irons - Douce Ambiance Southern Tour - The Violin Redefined

In this sparkling concert, talented violinist Cathy Irons teams up with top Christchurch jazz musicians, Dan Robertson (piano) and Dougal Canard (double bass, guitar), to explore the vibrancy and versatility of the violin, traveling through different styles and eras.

Join them on a journey from haunting ancient melodies to pulsating Gypsy tunes, through lively folk numbers across to the syncopated rhythms of Brazil and the passion of Argentinian tango, interspersed with popular swing, Latin and jazz numbers by Miles Davis, Chick Corea and others.

Never a moment to stand still. Prepare to be enthralled with new sonic experiences by this multi-talented ensemble, where you can also savour the deep richness of the viola and the clear brilliance of acoustic guitar.

Douce Ambiance literally means Sweet Sounds. Described as “a magic whole” and bringing “remarkable soul dancing joy,” Douce Ambiance promises an unforgettable concert that will uplift your spirits.
