Are you passionate about singing and looking for a rewarding challenge? As a vibrant, mixed-voice community choir, we have openings for men and women eager to explore the rich tapestry of classical choral music.
Led by musical director, Norman Duffy, supported by accompanist, Dympna O'Byrne, we are preparing for an exciting performance of Mozart's Mass in C minor, K. 427 in early 2025. This monumental work offers an extraordinary opportunity for singers at all levels to develop their skills and perform in a large-scale choral production. A masterpiece of the choral repertoire, set for four soloists, choir, and orchestra, it’s an adaptable and timeless piece beloved by singers and audiences alike.
We welcome inquiries from former members, those returning to choir singing, and newcomers alike. Singing in a group is not only fulfilling but also greatly beneficial for mental and physical well-being. While prior choral experience and ability to read music are helpful, they are not prerequisites. We offer learning tools to support all our members. Many new members haven’t sung in a choir for years, and we embrace all adult singers with open arms.”
A a well-established choir in the heart of Galway City, with deep ties to the community, we pride ourselves on our expertise in organizing concerts and our participation in community events, as well as our dedication to musical excellence.
The season begins on September 8, 2024. Rehearsals are on Sundays from 7:30 to 9:30 pm at St. Patrick’s Band Hall, between September and June. Our Members page has information about how the choir operates. Prospective members are invited to attend up to three rehearsals to see if we are the right fit.
