RTE CONCERT ORCHESTRA

The RTÉ Concert Orchestra has been cherished by Irish audiences for over sixty years. With an unrivalled repertoire, it appears at leading national and international festivals, on RTÉ Radio and Television and in the opera house, while through its commercial releases its recordings are distributed worldwide. The orchestra’s education programme is presented nationwide to tens of thousands of young people as the RTÉ/The Irish Times Music in the Classroom series. In 2009 the orchestra performed Handel’s Messiah with Our Lady’s Choral Society in the Vatican in the presence of His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI. Film credits for the RTÉ Concert Orchestra include The Island by Brian Byrne, Irish Destiny by Mícheál Ó Súilleabháin and The League of Gentlemen’s Apocalypse by Joby Talbot. The orchestra has an extensive discography on the Marco Polo, Naxos and RTÉ lyric fm labels. The Principal Conductor is David Brophy and Conductor Laureate Proinnsías Ó Duinn.
