Irish Chamber Orchestra at UCH: French Reverie

You are welcome to join Munster Social Group for an Irish Chamber Orchestra (ICO) performance at the University Concert Hall (UCH), Limerick.

Join the brilliant ICO for an immersive emotional journey that draws you into a world of elegance, reflection, and quiet intensity. A kaleidoscope of colour unfolds as Faure's Pavane, with its tender nostalgia, melts into the warmth of Debussy’s La fille aux cheveux de lin. The dreamlike serenity of Satie’s Gymnopédie No. 1 gives way to a heartfelt surge in Massenet’s much-loved Méditation before Katherine Hunka’s poignant elegy, Beyond, moves the soul. Finally, bask in the radiance of Ravel’s String Quartet in F Major, arranged for orchestra, as it gathers momentum into a vibrant, exhilarating finale. From stillness to splendour, this concert will certainly stir hearts.
