"Une musique d'une beauté aussi incalculable vous laisse presque désespéré de gratitude."

 - Le New-Yorkais, 2023 

Choir-In-Residence Chamber Choir Ireland will once again grace the Festival with its presence for a concert in the beautiful surrounds of St. Fin Barre’s Cathedral. 

In Forgotten Peoples, Chœur de chambre Irlande and Guest Director Gabriel Crouch explore issues of homelessness, migration, and belonging. In his work Forgotten Peoples, Veljo Tormis attempted to preserve the musical heritage of the minority groups that live along the shores of the Gulf of Finland, whose languages and ways of life are in danger of disappearing. Michael Gordon's Anonymous Man follows the composer's changing New York changing, from industrial warehouse district to residential area, and the impact on his unhoused neighbours. Erasure poetry is created by blacking out portions of a pre-existing text to create a new work.
