The Fermanagh/Tyrone Brass Band Summer School kick off on Thursday 15th with a recording of works by Paganini performed by Owen Farr accompanied by Charles Fyffe in the Enniskillen St Marcartans Catherdral.

To be released at a later date, the recital will feature works from Owen's 'Demonic Virtuoso' CD as well as him talking about the fascinating life of the world's first pop star performer — a man who could make women faint with his playing.

Owen also talks about the course and how much he is looking forward to it — and how he has found out more about about the great violin virtuoso, his life and crafty way of tuning the violin to his own needs — which has been helpful to Owen in mastering his fearsome works.
