A must for all Mozart lovers, Limerick Choral Union (LCU) returns to UCH with a rare performance of Mozart’s fascinating “Mass in C Minor”. Considered Mozart’s greatest work, it has never before been performed in these parts. This great Mass will be followed by the extraordinary “Requiem”.
Mozart’s boldness and ingenuity is portrayed in the great Mass with performances by four beautiful soloists accompanied by a positively sumptuous orchestra, and the amazing LCU choir who, on occasion, is divided further into two choirs!
The sublime “Requiem” is full of grandeur and like all great Mozart, has an expressive depth that forces all to delve beneath the surface for startling emotional richness, condensing a vast realm of feeling into less than an hour! Make the Mozart journey in great comfort with LCU and hear Mozart at his best.
Directed by Mr. Malcolm Green, LCU will be accompanied by LCU orchestra and four wonderful soloists:
Rachel Croash (Soprano) Eamonn Mulhall (Tenor)
Carolyn Holt (Alto) David Howes (Bass)
J. S. BACH: Mass in B minor, Dona Nobis Pacem performed by Limerick Choral Union and Orchestra.
Malcolm Green, Conductor.
Recorded in 2018.
Limerick Choral Union is one of the longest-established choirs in the city of Limerick and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2014 with a magnificent Gala Ball.
