Testimonials

"I have been having regular lessons with Cathal and he has greatly assisted the development of my conducting technique, working on aspects such as baton hold, beating patterns and musicianship, as well as providing insights into the technique of the families of instruments and rehearsal strategy. He is a sympathetic and patient teacher, while not being afraid to be honest about what is required. I would strongly recommend him."

"Cathal was an excellent teacher at the Royal Academy of Music, who helped to form my conducting technique and has supported my development ever since. His passion for the symphonic and choral repertoire was always inspiring and his exacting style helped to instil important qualities of discipline and self-reflection that have been vital to my career."
