IFI & DIFF: CONOR WALSH: SELECTED PIANO WORKS + Q&A Director: Keith Walsh 67 mins, Ireland, 2024, Digital Book cinema tickets Reel Art Conor Walsh wrote his heart in minimalist piano compositions. Described in the press as ‘meticulously crafted’ and ‘genuinely spellbinding’, his music came from a practice of non-directedness, directing us only to transcendence from our quotidian existence. This musical reverie celebrates the work Conor left behind when he died tragically of a heart attack aged 36, just when his music was beginning to flow out into the world. It pulses with the influences that went into the creation of his art – the windings of the river Moy, the human traffic of a small Mayo town, the migratory movements of swallows, a creaking 200-year-old hotel, the maternal melodies of his childhood. Followed by a Q&A with director Keith Walsh. Tickets available on diff.ie. Director: Keith Walsh 67 mins, Ireland, 2024, Digital
