Hailing from California, USA, the Napa High Choirs have a reputation for excellence in local, area, state and international competitions, winning top awards for many years. This outstanding youth ensemble is directed by Travis Rogers and Karen May. The choir regularly embarks on international tours and has travelled to places including Italy, France, Spain, Costa Rica, Hawaii, Florida and New York City. They perform as a large concert choir of 95 voices, but also split into smaller ensembles for several pieces and sing a selection of Irish folk songs and sacred pieces.
The Saint George’s Singers were formed in 1984 by Jonathan Gregory. In its 31 years, this Belfast –based cross community choir, now directed by Marion Doherty, has performed a wide range of music from the classical choral repertoire. The main focus has been on baroque music, but their repertoire ranges from early music by composers such as Monteverdi, Purcell and Byrd, through music of the classical and romantic eras to modern music by Britten and Bernstein. The choir has had the opportunity to perform in beautiful spaces – including their ‘home venue’ of St George's, St Mark’s Dundela, St Thomas Lisburn Road, Newry Cathedral, Clonard Monastery, the Ulster Hall and now St Anne's Cathedral!
