Lucia Mac Partlin – violin
Maria Ryan – violin/voice
Violin virtuose duo Lucia Mac Partlin and Maria Ryan, also known as “Lucia and
Maria” met while studying in Cork and quickly realized their shared passion for
folk music. While they both have been studying Classical Music on the violin from
an early age, the pair have also been deeply immersed in the world of Traditional
Irish Music, among other genres, and now draw on all of these influences in their
music to stunning effect.
The duo completed their Masters’ at the University of
Gothenburg in Sweden before returning home to record their debut album “Live
at the Chapel” at Griffith College Chapel in Cork in 2018.
Since then “Lucia and
Maria” have toured worldwide, both as a duo and with their contemporary Irish
Ensemble “Strung”. They aim to forever push the boundaries of fiddle music and
enthrall audiences both nationally and internationally.
