Berlin-based tenor Paul McNamara makes a rare visit to Cork on Thursday, October 11 to perform a special programme of songs all inspired by the theme of water and the legendary Franz Schubert. Before his untimely death at just 31 years old Schubert developed a whole new style of songwriting, closely mirroring the words and themes in the music and melody, to create pieces that can conjure up an entire scene or story in just a few minutes

From Limerick, McNamara is an honours music graduate of UCC and studied singing at the Cork School of Music. The concert will be McNamara’s first opportunity to sing in the state-of-the-art acoustics of the new Curtis Auditorium in the Cork School of Music, where he will be accompanied by distinguished Australian pianist Philip Mayers, who is now based in Berlin and is a performer much in demand.
