Atlantic Arc Orchestra is a collaborative project that brings together some of the most respected traditional musicians and singers from Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England under the musical direction of Ireland's legendary Dónal Lunny.

Formed in 2016, Atlantic Arc Orchestra came together for a series of one-off shows including Cork Folk Festival and Celtic Connections. Having discovered a shared interest in exploring and cultivating contemporary expressions of traditional music, the eight members set Atlantic Arc Orchestra on a course of openness and curiosity towards collaboration.

Through a programme of original, traditional, re-arranged and shared material, the members have created a powerful fusion of musical ancestry.
