Barry Douglas has established a major international career since winning the Gold Medal at the 1986 Tchaikovsky International Piano Competition, Moscow. 

As Artistic Director of Camerata Ireland, the only all-Ireland orchestra and the Clandeboye Festival, he continues to celebrate his Irish heritage whilst also maintaining a busy international touring schedule. 

For this afternoon recital Barry is combining works by Schubert, and Prokofiev while celebrating his Irish heritage with two of Field’s Nocturnes. The recital will culminate in Beethoven’s Appassionata. Widely regarded as one of his greatest and most technically challenging piano sonatas, the Appassionata was considered by Beethoven to be his most tempestuous piano sonata, and remains a cornerstone of the piano repertoire, a popular favourite with audiences.
