The Ulster Consort: I Love My Love

Works by Vaughan Williams, Holst, Britten, Tippett, Rutter, Stanford and Wood.

The Ulster Consort, Northern Ireland’s newest professional vocal ensemble, makes its Grand Opera House debut with a programme of much-loved folk songs from Ireland, North America, and Great Britain. 

Featuring classics such as The Salley Gardens, The Green Glens of Antrim, and Blow the Wind Southerly, there are also arrangements from Irish composers Stanford and Wood, alongside Vaughan Williams and Sir John Rutter (celebrating his 80th birthday in 2025), as well two new sets; one by American composer Gary Davison, Five American Folk Songs (world premiere), and the other by the Ulster Consort’s Music Director, Matthew Owens, Four Ulster Folk Songs (world premiere).
