About this event

A profoundly moving choral masterpiece for Good Friday with Czech music specialist Jiří Rožeň conducting National Symphony Orchestra Ireland, National Symphony Chorus Ireland and four exciting young soloists.

Moving from sorrow and despair to spiritual consolation and hope, Dvořák’s Stabat Mater is a work of immense depth and feeling imagining the suffering of the Virgin Mary at the Crucifixion.

Composed in the devastating aftermath of the loss of three children, Dvořák poured his grief and the solace of his faith into the Stabat Mater. The result is intimate and monumental, desolate mourning and emotional intensity resolving in the transcendent consolation of its end.

Tickets €15, €27.50, €35, €42.50, €49
