Video of Ergodos 'Morning Ritual' Performance

Morning Rituals was a programme of short performances curated by Ergodos for New Music Dublin 2019. Taking place in characterful spaces in and around the National Concert Hall on the morning of Sunday 3 March, these performances were about stepping back, focussing in, transcending.

Morning Rituals brought together performances and new work by seven individual and clear-voiced artists from around the world: cellist Kate Ellis, Australian-Dutch composer Kate Moore, Egyptian musician Nadah El Shazly, Australian flautist Lina Andonovska, vocalist Michelle O’Rourke, composer Anna Murray, and musician-filmmaker Laura Sheeran.
