Maynooth, Dublin, Ireland

I’ve recently visited someone who is a (foreign) student at the National University of Ireland in Maynooth.

The country is great, although it was pretty cold… the rented car was nice and warm, though.

Of course I also visited Dublin, walked around the city and visited several well-known places such as Trinity College, the Dublin Castle and the Christ Church Cathedral. Luckily I wasn’t in the city centre during the Saturday riots. Stupid people.

We spent the last night listening to a concert in the National Concert Hall performed by the UCD Sinfonia orchestra, the University College Dublin resident symphony orchestra, playing four pieces of music:

  1. Concierto de Aranjuez, composed by Rodrigo
  2. La Creation du Monde, composed by Milhaud
  3. Rodeo, composed by Copland
  1. Mars and Jupiter from the Planets Suite, composed by Gustav Holst
