Irish Chamber Orchestra and Chamber Choir Ireland Unite for Mozart’s Requiem

THE Limerick based Irish Chamber Orchestra (ICO) and Chamber Choir Ireland (CCI) will present Mozart’s renowned Requiem in Dublin and Berlin on November 17 and 23, respectively.

Mozart’s Requiem is celebrated for its beauty and emotional depth, exploring themes of death and the afterlife. One of the greatest works ever written for choir and orchestra, it conveys a soul’s journey from torment to spiritual peace.

The concerts will also feature the world premiere of Blood, a new composition by Irish composer David Fennessy, performed by ICO violinist Katherine Hunka and vocalists from CCI. Conducted by Thomas Zehetmair, the performances will showcase top Irish talent, including soloists Ailish Tynan, Carolyn Holt, Robin Tritschler, and Padraic Rowan. www.irishchamberorchestra.com for more details.

The ICO’s next engagement in Limerick will be the much loved Choral Christmas on Friday December 13 for two performances with Irish Youth Choir
