Colm studied Trombone at the

Performance. He has performed at international festivals such as
the North Sea and Copenhagen jazz festivals, and in 2007, he
toured China with The European Youth Jazz Orchestra. At the

Components Series
A performance series with a rare
difference, Components features a series of new works by Irish
composers developed over six concerts. Each week a collection of
New Irish music will be written and performed, each piece will
be recorded, developed and used to accompany a musician at
another performance in the series. This process will be repeated
so that you can follow the development of the composers work
through the series like a serial or a soap-opera.
Each concert will be podcast on this site each week, so that
you can listen back to the music or catch-up on the progress of
your favorite works. You can listen to the whole concert or
follow a particular composer through the series.
The Aim of this unprecedented concept, is to establish a
greater understanding of the compositional process and to make
creative Irish music more accessible. It is my hope that these
concerts will be followed each week by a healthy dialogue
between the audience the composers and the performers.
