Chamber Choir Ireland is delighted to partner with The Hugh Lane Gallery and Sundays at Noon in presenting Carols at the Gallery. Pre-recorded on 12/13 November 2020, under the direction of Alan Leech, the concert features some much-loved carols, as well as wonderful new arrangements and settings by Irish composers.
Surrounded by the magnificent artwork in the Gallery's Sculpture Hall, the concert will be streamed and available to view from 8pm on Sunday 20 December until 11pm on Christmas Day.
We have a flat-rate ticket price of €10 in which CCI will absorb the relevant booking fees. If you wish to support the work of CCI further and to donate, we would be most grateful. The option to add a discretionary donation of your choice is available on the ticket booking page.
