This December “the Jimi Hendrix of the violin” (New York Times) visits StageOne for an exceptional night of Irish music.

 

World renown violinist Eileen Ivers and her band capture the spirit and magic of the season in her heartwarming Christmas holiday show. Nine-time All-Ireland Fiddle Champion and music star of Riverdance, Eileen Ivers will change the way you think about the violin.

The program of American and Irish songs, original tunes and holiday favorites, arranged with Eileen's unique style, are centered around the true meaning of Christmas.

 

Eileen and the band joyfully perform diverse music from gospel-style ‘Go Tell It On The Mountain’,

to Gaelic classic ‘Don Oiche Ud i mBeithil” (One Night in Bethlehem), to a jig-ified version of Bach's ‘Jesu Joy’, to the hornpipe that evolved into today's ‘Deck the Halls...’, to a very unique ‘The Little Drummer Boy’ performed on the traditional bodhran goat skinned drum.

 

From the first note to the rousing finale you’ll be taken on a joyous musical journey; a concert for the entire family that you’ll not forget.
