Matthew Gilsenan from the Celtic TenorsMatthew Gilsenan

Matthew Gilsenan was born into a hard-working farming family in North Meath. Steeped in the local musical traditions and raised by parents who shared a great love for music, from the great composers to obscure Irish folk, Matthew along with all his siblings was born to sing.

His classical training started in the Sisters of Mercy convent in Kells, Co.Meath, aged 10, and progressed to some of the great Irish and Scottish teachers. Although he ventured into opera and classical singing, Matthew never lost his love for the music of his youth, in particular the vibrant contemporary Irish music which is his great source of inspiration.

Matthew’s busy singing life ran in parallel with his engineering career, but his desire to sing was too strong. So in 1997, he decided to take a six month sabbatical from engineering and embarked on his singing career. So in the space of one year, Matthew’s live singing moved from his engineering firms rock band to Ireland’s National Chamber Choir to the operatic stage and onwards, together with James, founding The Celtic Tenors, in a sensational boardroom signing with EMI classics. Matthew has never looked back!
