Founded in 2013 by the highly respected violinist and pianist Mary McCague, the Munster String Quartet is a collective, comprised of some of the finest string players in Cork. Over the past decade, the ensemble has become one of Ireland’s most sought-after string quartets, performing at concerts, private events, corporate engagements and high-profile ceremonies throughout the country.
With an immense repertoire that spans classical, film music, pop and contemporary hits, the quartet is especially renowned for its unique and dynamic arrangements of modern music. In this regard, Munster String Quartet brings a fresh and exciting edge to the traditional string quartet sound.
The group exclusively performs Candlelight Concerts for Fever in Cork, presenting themed tribute concerts and selling out hundreds of performances to date. Their programmes have included hugely popular tributes to Coldplay, Queen, ABBA, Taylor Swift, Hans Zimmer, Bridgerton, Leonard Cohen, The Beatles, Adele, and more.
Founder Mary McCague has performed both on stage and on television with internationally acclaimed artists such as Michael Bublé, Rod Stewart, Westlife, Il Divo, Kanye West, Leona Lewis, Mike
Batt and The Divine Comedy, among many others.
As a collective, the Munster String Quartet has been invited to perform at VIP events in some of Ireland’s most beautiful and prestigious venues, including Ashford Castle, Luttrellstown Castle, Carton House, Castletown House, Christchurch Cathedral, Ballyfin Demesne, Adare Manor and Dromoland Castle. Last Summer, the quartet delighted visitors to the Guinness Storehouse with a series of pop-up performances, showcasing their contemporary sound in one of Ireland’s most iconic landmarks.
In 2024, the quartet received high praise for a special live performance at the Royal Television Society Awards in Dublin’s Liberty Hall Theatre. Looking ahead to 2026, they will embark on a nationwide tour with the international show One Night of Adele.
