Alexandru Tomescu is the artist for whom music has no limits: ready to play the most difficult scores in marathon concerts, in month-long tours, the violinist is unanimously appreciated by the audiences all over the world. After graduating from the Bucharest Conservatory where he was taught by Ştefan Gheorghiu, he continued his studies abroad with Igor Oistrakh, Ruggiero Ricci, Tibor Varga and Eduard Schmieder. Winner of prestigious prizes in competitions such as Marguerite Long – Jacques Thibaud, George Enescu, Paganini or Sarasate, he has performed on the world’s most renowned concert stages: Carnegie Hall (New York), Walt Disney Concert Hall (Los Angeles), Théâtre des Champs Elysées (Paris), Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory, Concertgebouw (Amsterdam).
In 2007, Alexandru won the right to play the Stradivarius Elder-Voicu 1702 violin, which belongs to the Romanian State and promised to make its sound heard by all Romanians. The Stradivarius International Tour has thus become one of the most popular classical music events in Romania.
The first international edition of the Tour took place in 2015, celebrating the 60th anniversary of Enescu's death with a unique marathon: all of Enescu's works for violin and piano gathered in one session.

As the Romanian Embassy in Dublin always strives to meet the needs of Romanian citizens in Ireland, especially those that live at a greater distance from the headquarters of the Consular Section of the Romanian Embassy in Dublin, they initiated the process of establishing itinerant consulates in Ireland, outside of Dublin city, during 2022.
The Embassy is launching a public consultation on the locations in which these traveling consulates could be organized.
To celebrate the National Day of Romania a reception will be organised by the Romanian Embassy in Dublin on November 30th 2021 at Set Theatre in Kilkenny followed by a live jazz and traditional Irish music concert.
On December 1st, eiro members invite all these who want to celebrate the National Day of Romania and the Grate Union for a dinner, chat and wine at the Tuscany Restaurant in Castletroy - Limerick at 5pm. Confirmations by email to info@eiro.ie are required no later than 4pm on December 1st.
Saint Patrick’s day is, without any doubt, the quintessential celebration of the Irish culture, which according to many sources has been celebrated in Ireland for more than a millennium.
Today, March 17th is in the consciousness of people across the globe, the much awaited day of parades, celebrations, shamrocks and anything green that act as reminders of St. Patrick’s legacy, the Patron Saint of Ireland.
How wonderful it is to have more reasons to celebrate this month! The Romanian people have a double reason in this respect, as March 8th marks not only Mother’s Day but also International Women’s Day.
Although many countries around the world celebrate Mother’s Day on various days, there are a little over twenty countries which celebrate this special day on March 8th, with countries like Romania, Russia, Bulgaria, Moldova and Belarus being just a few of them.
Spring is here at long last with its longer daylight, blossoming flowers, sunnier days and renewed sense of hope! We hope our email finds you and your dear ones in great health and wonderful high spirits that the month of March always brings, filling our hearts with love and joy.
For this reason, the EIRO team is all too excited about the impending arrival of Martisor, our Romanian traditional harbinger of spring. We’re hoping that our Martisor e-card will put a smile on your faces and brighten up your day!
