St John Passion The Irish Chamber Orchestra joins forces with the National Chamber Choir for Bach’s timeless celebration of Easter.

  • Sylvia O’Brien - soprano
  • James Lang - counter tenor
  • Mark Wilde - tenor
  • Ben Bevan - bass

Change in Programme -
When the 07/08 season was launched, the March concert was advertised as an arrangement of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'. These performances will now take place in September.

The change came about when the opportunity arose to perform the Passion at the most appropriate time of year alongside Grammy awarding winning conductor Stephen Layton, the National Chamber Choir and a world-class line-up of soloists.

We apologies for any confusion this change may have caused.

Please note that the Concert in Cork is now in City Hall on Wednesday 5th and not the CIT Cork School of Music on Friday 7th as previously advertised
