About this concert
Vladimir's Viennese Christmas Gala
With Vladimir's family from Slovakia 'The Jablokovs', tenor Sean Costello, soprano Margaret Keys, 25 piece orchestra and 50 piece choir.
Join violin sensation Vladimir as he adds a festive glow to some of the most beautiful classical melodies from the Romantic era, together with a flurry of seasonal evergreens to get you set for the most wonderful time of the year.
These 2019 Gala concerts will feature Vladimir’s most memorable performances of the past decade, along with many new surprises.
Vladimir will be joined by his parents, sister and brothers. The Jablokov's will be joined on stage by Vladimir's hand picked orchestra, tenor Sean Costello, star soprano Margaret Keys and amazing Arabella Voices choir.
Vladimir grew up on in Bratislava, Slovakia in the family of musicians where both parents and 6 siblings played music together since a young age. 5 out of the 6 children decided to make music their professional career. 15 years ago Vladimir moved to Ireland. Starting from busking on Grafton street, he quickly moved on to performing concerts. Missing the family and their performances together he decided, in 2008, to re-unite them for his Viennese Christmas concert. Since then, the Jablokov’s meet every December in Ireland for the family gathering and have to date, performed for over 50,000 people here.
With music from the Strauss Family, Franz Lehar and Christmas songs and carols you know and love, this is the perfect start to the holiday celebrations.

Vladimir (Violinist) Biography
Vladimir Jablokov started playing the violin aged five, making his stage debut at the tender age of ten. Coming from four generations of professional music makers, with a Russian maestro for a father and five musical siblings around him at home; Vladimir is steeped in the classical tradition.
Vladimir arrived in Ireland from Slovakia 18 years ago. Originally only planning to stay in Ireland for a few months; he soon found work and money hard to come by. Having little English, he quickly decided to let his music do the talking and started busking on Grafton Street. Getting a taste for live performance, he formed the Slovak Festival Quartet in 2006 with some friends.
Spotted by leading Irish label Rubyworks, Vladimir released his debut album – ‘Classical Twist’ – in 2011. A winning hybrid of classics, jazz and pop from Bach to Bowie.
With a growing reputation, Vladimir played some of Ireland’s most prestigious venues; including The Mansion House, The Gaiety Theatre, The Olympia Theatre, Marlay Park, Cork Opera House, Limerick UCH and Wexford Opera House. He is headlining sell-out concerts at the National Concert Hall in Dublin on regular basis.
He released his first Christmas album – ‘Vladimir’s Classical Christmas’ – in 2013, and toured Ireland again with special guests Claudia Boyle and Sean Costello, as well as the entire Jablokov musical family.
Now the talented Slovakian joins forces with his younger brother Anton, himself a dazzling violinist with a flair for daring improvisation, which showcases their almost telepathic skills as sibling musicians. The “Two Brothers” stage-show and forthcoming album celebrates popular classical music by the great composers mixed with well-known favourites from the stage and screen. Expect to hear evergreen compositions like “If I Were A Rich Man”, “Kalinka”, “Somewhere (fromWest Side Story)” and “Dark Is The Night”.
During his time in Ireland, Vladimir Jablokov has established himself as one of the brightest young stars on the Irish classical scene, with concerts and recordings that show his love of Viennese music, contemporary pop/crossover and the great heritage of Russian and Eastern European classical composers.
Apart from smaller concerts, Vladimir is now preparing his biggest production up to date to be staged at Dublin's 3Arena in December 2022.
