The performance will be part of Chamber Choir Ireland’s 30th Anniversary season. Founded in 1996 as Ireland’s national chamber choir, the ensemble has led the way in increasing the appreciation of choral music in Ireland, receiving critical acclaim for its national and international tours.

The concert is part of a nationwide tour beginning at Cork International Choral Festival, where the programme will also feature the winning piece in this year's Seán Ó Riada Composition Competition, Timothy Doyle's Points and Lines.
