Over three days, the two visiting examiners heard performances of over 350 solo or group items. These will count to up to 33% (JC) or 50% (LC) of the students’ final marks and represent a significant proportion of the work of the music department.
The Dawn Chorale: On 3rd May Ms Mahoney led the Chamber Choir to the terrace of the rose garden at Kilkenny Castle at 6.15 a.m. to perform at another ‘Dawn Chorale’ before about 150 early risers. Along with the birds, they sang: “Morning has broken”, “Holy, Holy, Holy”, “Ave verum” and “Now is the month of Maying”. Breakfast in the Kilkenny Design Centre followed.

A very large congregation of clergy and laity from the whole of Ireland heard them sing “This joyful Eastertide”, “Ave verum”, “The Lord bless you”, “Day by day”, “The souls of the righteous” and “Ave maris stella”. This was the first time the newly-renovated organ was heard. Eleven of the 46 speaking stops were in action.

As part of their visit, three residencies were held in Kilkenny College when three of the musicians held a workshop for our 3rd year music pupils. Barry Douglas and two of his leading players generously gave an informal recital in the music room in front of 35 of our music pupils. It was a special treat to hear our lovely grand piano being played by Barry and to hear a genuine Stadivarius violin (worth $2.5m) at such close quarters. They performed the 1st movt. of Tchaikovsky’s Piano trio, a set of variations for violin and ‘cello and a slow, bluesy movement a contemporary American composer.
