A BIG thank you to everyone who helped and took part in our exciting and joyful celebrations with the University of Notre Dame Folk Choir. We were delighted to welcome the choir, led by Steve Warner, and Friends of Notre Dame to Harold’s Cross for a lively and vibrant few days. Special thanks to our host families, who made the students feel so at home.
Well done to our House of Brigid Fellows Geoff, Rikki and Susanna for organising the event.

A particular highlight was the Mass for the Feast of the Visitation on Tuesday 31 May 2016, recorded for television. Below are photos from the workshop and concert on 30-31 May, plus some time out in the sun!

Directed by Steve Warner – composer of pieces such as “Set Your Heart on the Higher Gifts” – the Notre Dame Folk Choir has travelled widely, including a tour of Australia in 2015. Over the past 35 years, the choir has gained an international reputation for its rich and diverse repertoire. You can watch some recordings on YouTube.
