Step into the world of Joyce with music! Sweny’s Music & Poetry Stroll is a musical walking tour led by singer-songwriter Remco Jacobs on 14 and 15 June at 1pm. Beginning and ending at the Joycean landmark Sweny’s Pharmacy, the tour features songs mentioned throughout the works of James Joyce, along with poetry by Joyce and his contemporaries set to music.
The stroll lasts 45-60 minutes and winds from Sweny’s Pharmacy to Merrion Square — once home to Oscar Wilde — then to Finn’s Hotel at the corner of Clare Street and Nassau Street, where Joyce met his wife, Nora Barnacle. From there, the walk returns to Sweny’s. Along the way, songs are sung, and stories — both historical and literary — are shared.
