Special Performance - Kit's first show

As those on the mailing list will know, Pluck's violinist Adrian Garratt is leaving at the end of this year to pursue other projects. Adrian founded the group in 2002, so as you can imagine, the decision to leave after seven years didn't come lightly. Adrian will be writing a personal message soon to thank you for your support over the years. In the meantime, we've been busy recruiting for a new violinist, and are delighted to introduce Kit Massey.Kit will be a permanent Plucker from January next year, but rehearsals are already underway, and he will be making his first public appearance in this special performance.

7 | "Musical Arson" | Belfast Opera In The Gardens

Pluck's first public performance in Northern Ireland. And what a event to perform at. Pluck support none other than the Royal Opera performing Puccini's final opera Turandot, live from the Royal Opera House in London by live satellite broadcast via the BP Big Screens in Botanic Gardens. Turandot is a glorious pageant of colour and action.At its centre is the Chinese princess who imposes cryptic riddles on her potential suitors, only to slaughter them when they fail to answer! How fitting, then, that Pluck should be the pre-show entertainment, with their own cryptic riddles and suitor slaughtering. Perhaps. See the Belfast Opera in the Gardens website for more details on this amazing event
