SOPRANO, MAEVE CAIRNEY, ANNOUNCES SECOND CONCERT IN SERIES

Sunday January 15th 2012 is the date for the second in a series of five Galway concerts to be performed by Kinvara based soprano, Maeve Cairney in conjunction with renowned pianist, Morgan Cooke. “Sull’aria” is a celebration of all things romantic and the pieces will include arias and songs by Puccini, Mozart, Handel and Dvořák to name but a few. The concert will take place in the intimate setting of Nun’s Island Theatre. Special guest performer on the night will be soprano, Michel Durham-Brandt of Durham Voice Studio.  Tickets; €10 at the door (€8 concession).

The first concert in the series, “Gaudete” was held on December 4th in the Augustinian Priory and was a great success. Everyone who attended had nothing but positive things to say about the choice of music and the performance as a whole. This entire series is an exciting venture for Maeve and she enjoys the feedback from people who attend and encourages concert goers to express their opinions in her “Guest Book” after each event.

“In January we all need a little lift and what better way than to ensconce yourself in wonderful live music” said Maeve.

Maeve is an entertainer for Shannon Heritage in Dunguaire Castle, Kinvara and a regular contributor to the many music sessions in venues throughout Kinvara.  Maeve is currently a member of the Quay Singers and can be heard regularly in Galway Cathedral where she is a Cantor. It is the purity of her voice that is commented on most often.  She developed her vocal range having first studied at the Bel Canto School of Singing and then performing with Lyric Opera Chorus and the Cantabile Singers in Dublin. Maeve is now a student of Durham Voice Studio.

Ends.
