Orchestra of

Formed in January 1995, the Orchestra of St. Cecilia has quickly established a fine reputation for the quality of its per­formances. Comprising professional musicians, it was first heard in the noted Bach Cantata series at St. Ann's Church, Dawson Street.

The success of these concerts led to the issue of a CD of can­tata highlights. As -well as providing a regular series of con­certs, the Orchestra has also appeared with choral societies at the National Concert Hall and in Carlow, Tullow, Castlebar and Tallaght. It appeared with the chamber choir, Madrigal '75 at the Cork Choral Festival. It will be participating later this year at the National Concert Hall and in a complete series of Mozart Piano Concertos with soloist Hugh Tinney.
