THE HOLY TRINITY CAPUCHIN CHURCH situated on Fr Mathew Quay in the heart of Cork City will provide a spectacular venue for the upcoming charity concert in aid of Hope Foundation. This exciting musical event will take place on Thursday November 17th at 8.15 pm. For many years now the Hope Foundation has been working with some of the most disadvantaged children in the world. Hope continues to rescue thousands of children from the streets and slums of Calcutta. Now more than ever before they need our help.
Some of East Corks top musical talent comes together on the night to present an uplifting program of music in the heavenly acoustics of Holy Trinity.
Cantemus, directed by Tomás Ó Tuama, is a chamber choir with a wide ranging repertoire from early Christian to contemporary. This choir has been successfully competing in The Cork Choral Festival since 2007. It was awarded National Choir of The Year and winner of The Sacred Music Competition at the Navan Choral Festival in 2011.
Ilse De Ziah will be performing a selection of pieces on solo cello. Ilse is a Baroque and folk musician, and composer. She is currently leader of the cellist section of Cork Symphony Orchestra.
The Kiltha Tones, a male voice choir directed by Ursula Muckley, will add to the eclectic nature of the evening with music from around the world.
Castlemartyr Choir, directed by Tómas Ó Tuama will open the concert. This choir is no stranger to Holy Trinity. It won The Sacred Music Competition here at Feis Maitiú in 2011.
This upcoming event gives us all a chance to enjoy a great evening of choral and baroque music in a beautiful, spiritual and acoustic venue while helping a really worthy cause.
