The Occasional Singers
David Brophy conductor
Hollywood's version of the bible and other inspirational stories has always been of epic proportions as have the musical scores that accompany them. It's a fitting tribute this Easter to celebrate this magnificent genre. Tonight the RTÉ Concert Orchestra, under Principal Conductor David Brophy, perform classic music from The Ten Commandments, Samson and Delilah, Quo Vadis, The Robe, Jesus of Nazareth, King of Kings and the larger than life 'Parade of the Charioteers' from Ben Hur to name but a few.
