RTÉ Concert Orchestra Opera Gala with Claudia Boyle

Join us for an evening of emotional operatic highs and lows with some of opera’s most ravishing arias. Conducted by Wexford Festival Opera’s guest conductor Francesco Cilluffo, who brings ‘An instinctive feeling for Italianate lyricism’ (New York Times), and featuring four of opera’s extraordinary singers including the phenomenal soprano Claudia Boyle.

Boyle, mezzo-soprano Axelle Saint-Cirel, tenor Eduardo Niave and baritone Giorgi Lomiseli join the RTÉ Concert Orchestra, which has a vibrant, elecectic repertoire,with a programme that pays homage to this year’s Wexford Festival Opera theme of myths and legends. Last year, an opera gala concert co-presented by the RTÉ CO and Wexford Festival Opera was held in The Helix with soprano Celine Byrne and other speical guests, exploring the theme of theatre within theatre, with an emphasis on the intricacies and enchantments of opera.
