IN Memoriam

In 2013 The Irish Film & Television Academy remembered some of the outstanding talent the industry has lost in the last 10 years. Although they may be gone, the legacy of their work continues to enrich, enlighten and entertain.

The Academy pays tribute to colleagues and friends who have passed, accompanied by a specially composed and arranged lament by Brian Byrne with a special performance by internationally renowned Violin Soloist Aoife Ní Bhriain and the RTÉ Concert Orchestra. The poignant Memoriam piece is introduced by Colm Meaney.
