Members of the public are invited to make their season bright with well-known seasonal favourites like Gordon Lightfoot’s Song for a Winter’s Night or Irving Berlin’s White Christmas. The choir will also sing traditional favourites like O Christmas Tree and Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree.

 

Commenting ahead of the concert, Carlow Voices Musical Director, Marian Gaynor, said: "We are thrilled to bring Wintersong to our community once again. This concert is a beautiful blend of tradition and contemporary music that truly captures the essence of the festive season. Our choir has

 been working hard to prepare a programme that will warm hearts and bring joy to all who attend."

All proceeds from a raffle on the night will be donated to Éist Cancer Support Centre.

 

Anne Marie, Service Manager of Éist Cancer Support Centre, said: "Charity partnerships like this one with Carlow Voices raise much-needed funds to support the delivery of our services.
