Charlotte Spruit live in Bantry

Experience Charlotte Spruit live on July 2nd

Charlotte Spruit, a Dutch-Irish composer and performer, will present a concert at Marino Church in Bantry, County Cork, Ireland on July 2nd, 2026. Spruit’s musical style is often described as atmospheric and evocative, blending elements of contemporary classical music with traditional Irish influences and field recordings. Her compositions frequently explore themes of landscape, memory, and the natural world, utilizing piano as a central instrument alongside electronic textures and occasionally incorporating vocal elements. She is known for creating immersive soundscapes that draw upon both minimalist repetition and richly detailed harmonic structures.

Marino Church, also known locally as Bantry House Chapel, is a historically significant building located within the grounds of Bantry House. Originally constructed in 1790 as a private chapel for the Earls of Bantry, it’s designed in a Neoclassical style inspired by Italian churches. The church features notable architectural details including marble columns and intricate plasterwork. It underwent extensive restoration in the 20th century following a period of disuse and is now open to the public for services and cultural events. The acoustics within the space are considered particularly well-suited to musical performances due to its stone construction and relatively intimate size.
