International Women’s Day sees local choirs join forces
Both female choirs have performed throughout Ireland
Two award-winning female choirs will present a special Spring choral concert to celebrate International Women’s Day on Friday, March 8 in St Mary’s Church, Kilbane.
The Gúnas (Killaloe) and Seoda Chamber Choir (Limerick) are delighted to be joining forces for this special celebration in Mary’s Church, Kilbane, Co. Clare (V94 HX75) at 7.30pm.
Both female choirs who have performed throughout Ireland and beyond are well known for their contributions to the musical and cultural life in the Clare and Limerick areas.
Under the talented direction of Rhoda Clery, (The Gúnas) and Máire Keary Scanlon, (Seoda), the choirs will perform many of their old favourites in the beautiful 19th century church of St. Mary’s, Kilbane. Both choirs will be accompanied by Irina Dernova (piano) and Lucia Murphy (violin).
It is third time lucky for this choral event as concerts scheduled in December 2022 and March 2023 had to be cancelled due to snow!
In recent times, St Mary’s Church has undergone a complete refurbishment by a small group of local volunteers, with minimal funding, and a great deal of local support.
This is a free concert and refreshments will be served after the performance. There will be an opportunity for members of the audience to make a retiring donation.
