Extra Sweet Symphony - The Unthanks live in The Abbey Theatre, Dublin – Wednesday 18th April 2018

The Unthanks returned to Dublin this week for two show as part of the Musictown festival Billed as MusicTown: The Unthanks with the Orchestra of Ireland, they were also joined by sparkly conductor Charles Hazlewood. The Unthanks has done a short orchestral tour in the UK last year but never made it to Ireland so it was good to have the opportunity to see and hear how it would work.

I think the last time I was The Abbey was for some Shakespeare and certainly had never been at a musical performance there. In retrospect buying tickets in the middle of Row C was probably a bit of mistake and being a bit further back we might had a bit more perspective. The night was split into two six song sets with an interval in between. Becky & Rachel were front and centre, either side of the conductor, with the orchestra seated behind them and Adrian McNally off to our left on piano. Niopha Keegan and  Chris Price also got an occasional look in over to our right.

The sets featured a mix of songs from the albums with a cover or two thrown in. After Gan to the Kye we got the amazing title track from their Mount The Air album with a gentleman called Niall O'Sullivan providing the amazing trumpet part and the ladies go to show-off their clog dancing skills. Foundling, also from Mount The Air, was the other highlight from the first set and certainly pulls at all the emotional heart strings.

In the second set Lucky Gilchrist’s driving piano certainly perked everything up a notch or two, before the more downbeat At First She Starts, Madam and the soothing Flutter. They finished the second set with their version of King Crimson’s Starless, which is certainly shorted and had orchestration instead of Robert Fripp’s guitar. Without the orchestra ever leaving the stage Rachel & Becky left and rejoined the stage for a reprise of Mount The Air which also featured a return of the clogs.

While the orchestral arrangements were certainly powerful and mellifluous I am not sure they added a lot to The Unthanks already incredible sound. I was just glad to have the chance to see them live again.
