Gerard Victory Life

 

Born and educated in Dublin, Gerard Victory has continued to hold an important position in the musical life of the Irish capital, with a series of operas and orchestral and choral works, the last including his remarkable oratorio Ultima Rerum, a work that is powerful, moving and yet approachable, a contemporary Dream of Gerontius that combines texts from Blake, Flecker, Leopardi, Tennyson, Whitman, the Edda, the Koran and the Latin Requiem.
