Our next talk takes place this coming Saturday 9th of December at 11am in Buswells Hotel. It’s not really a talk, as we will be screening John McCormack’s film ‘Song O’ My Heart’ which he made for Fox Pictures in 1930. There will be a brief introduction before the screening.
John was paid the princely sum of €500,000 for his starring role, underling the global fame and popularity of the Irish tenor. The film features the only recorded footage of McCormack performing on the concert stage.
The following clip is of McCormack performing the 18th century French love, Plaisir d’amour.
