The Count: The Music of John McCormack – with Matthew Gilsenan

Spend an hour in the company of the great Irish lyric tenor who charmed and electrified audiences the world over in the early years of the 20th century. His repertoire ranged from operatic arias to his favourite Irish ‘come all ye’s’. The event will take place in a venue in which McCormack himself actually performed, the magnificent Robert Adam ballroom of Headfort House. The music of McCormack will be performed by one of Ireland’s contemporary great lyric tenors, Matthew Gilsenan (The Celtic Tenors) accompanied on piano by Gavan Murray. Script and narration by Myles Dungan.
