Prepare to be entranced by the beauty of Mozart’s Great Mass in C Minor, as Galway Choral Association (GCA) presents this timeless masterpiece in the stunning Galway Cathedral.
Directed by Norman Duffy and accompanied by the gifted Ramin Haghjoo, this performance will feature outstanding soloists: Aisling Kenny (Soprano), Charlotte O'Hare (Soprano), Conor Prendiville (Tenor), and William Gaunt (Bass).
“I’m thrilled to be directing this monumental piece,” says Norman. “Mozart's "Great" Mass in C minor is a truly epic work, one of his very finest. It will be a great privilege to lead Galway Choral Association, our four terrific soloists, accompanied by Ramin Haghjoo, in this performance, which follows our highly successful performance of Mozart's Requiem in 2023.”
Tony Roe, Chairperson of GCA, agrees: "Galway Cathedral offers the perfect setting for such a grand and powerful piece. Ramin Haghjoo’s expertise on the organ has elevated the music to new heights, making this a performance you won’t want to miss.”
This concert marks a significant change in approach to funding. In line with the current policy for Catholic Churches, and reflecting the Association’s commitment to making music accessible to all, entry is by donation. “This allows people from all walks of life to enjoy this incredible music,” says Roe. “We’re confident that the generosity of our audience and loyal followers will cover the costs of this ambitious production, which features professional soloists and musicians.”
Admission is by donation, with contributions accepted at the door and online via Eventbrite. Traditionally, tickets were €20-25, but this year, the choir welcomes donations of any amount to ensure that everyone can experience the performance.
Join us for an unforgettable evening of Mozart’s genius at Galway Cathedral on Saturday, February 8th at 8pm.
