about

Úna Keane is a Pianist + Composer from Dublin, Ireland. This, her first instrumental album is a collection of piano solo compositions which combines free-form minimalism & classical cross-over. Her use of repeated motifs and cyclical patterns results in music that gets up close and personal whilst also conjuring up wide cinematic landscape. Written in tempo rubato, with tonal influences from both the traditional Irish music and classical genres, this is music that is imbued with space and room to breath.

The Album was conceived and composed over 3 trips to Paris between 2015 / 2016 while staying at Le Centre Culturel Irlandais, and includes a commission from CCI to compose a piece of music after a Séamus Heaney poem. Back home in Ireland, 2 x week-long stays in a rented cottage in the wilds of the Beara Peninsula & long walks in Dublin’s Phoenix Park with her Irish Terrier Indie provided further inspiration. Recording took place at The Live Room in Dublin in 2016, co-producing with Ben Rawlins / Saso.

This record talks to the idea of how we owe who we are to all those who have gone before us. How they paved the way. The thread between past, present and future. It’s ultimately a record about connection.

remarkable pace and flow, plays as an extended rumination on a theme, each piece weaving in modulations and variations in an almost dub-like transformative experience. johnny aitch

A wonderful album. I hear hints of Jeff Buckley, The Beatles and Rufus Wainright in his songwriting. Not just cleverly written songs, but with feeling. And the strings are stunning too. jane willow
