- **Event Description**: Join us at the James Joyce Centre for a captivating evening exploring Val O'Donnell's 18 new ballads inspired by Ulysses.About this EventJoin us at the James Joyce Centre on Friday, 6th February at 6.30pm for the premiere of 18 More Ballads after James Joyce's Ulysses Volume II by Val O’Donnell.Adding to the success of his 2024 18 Ballads from James Joyce's Ulysses, Val is at it again with 18 more vibrant, playful and engrossing ballads set to airs of music referred to in Ulysses and Joyce's other work. It includes short quotes from Joyce's work, a note on the music and suggestions for accessing the original sheet music and performances of the airs chosen for the ballads.Although there are about 700 songs referenced in Ulysses, only a few songs are actually performed by the characters. Only one of the episodes – 'Sirens,' which is set in the saloon bar of the old Ormond Hotel – is the setting for an informal afternoon concert. Even then, we only hear snatches of the music being sung. Val thought it would be a good idea to give a musical voice to some of the characters and to set their ballads to music associated with Joyce.After the inaugural performance in 2024 and another in 2025, the James Joyce Centre is honoured to host the third.Copies of 18 More Ballads will be on sale at the event (€10). The book is published by .Admission is €10.
