COMING UP

Camerata Ireland is proud to have celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2024. The orchestra was founded in 1999 by internationally renowned pianist Barry Douglas in response to the historic Good Friday Agreement, with the first concerts taking place on consecutive days in April 1999 in Stormont Parliament Buildings and St Patrick’s Hall, Dublin Castle. The aim of Camerata Ireland is to bring together the finest musicians from the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland to perform at home and internationally. In recognition of the exceptional nature and quality of its work, Camerata Ireland was awarded the Joint Patronage of Mary McAleese, President of Ireland and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 2004. Today, this joint patronage is held by His Majesty King Charles III and President Michael D. Higgins.
