Hailed by the press for its "enthralling performances" that "brim with musicality" and the "sensuality, charm and impulse of the best world-level ensembles," Camerata Ireland brings Irish musicians together to celebrate Ireland, its music-making and the wealth of musical talent that abounds in Ireland and is recognized throughout the world. The orchestra is under the artistic and musical direction of acclaimed pianist and conductor Barry Douglas, and is entirely comprised of exceptionally talented Irish musicians, many of whom also play in top positions in other premier orchestras, including the London Symphony Orchestra and the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra. Barry Douglas' name is instantly recognized in the concert halls of the world. In 1986, he became one of only two non-Russians-the other being Van Cliburn-to have won outright the Tchaikovsky Gold Medal in Moscow. Since then he has performed and recorded with the world's leading orchestras and conductors in most of the world's great concert venues.
