Since 1965, Carlow Choral Society has become one of the most eminent names in an astounding Irish network of choral music. This success has been the result of the many talented and skilled succession of musical directors that the society has befriended since its instalment.
It was with the objective to bring live choral music to the community of Carlow that Carlow Choral Society first came to light. They are a large group of amateur singers who aim to perform to a professional standard, directed by Blanaid Murphy and assisted by accompanist Yvonne Collier. The society is committed to promoting Carlow Town and County and take every opportunity to bring visiting choirs to the locality.
With over 85 members from all over County Carlow, and surrounding counties, all singers come from many backgrounds but share in common a passion for choral music, singing and a commitment to performing to audiences throughout County Carlow, Ireland and the rest of Europe. The society was invited to take part in the 200th anniversary of Halifax choral society(the oldest choral society in the world) in 2017 with world famous Black Dyke band.
The society has a prolific concert programme with performances in early Summer and Christmas as well as the annual ‘Glory of Christmas’ concert with Raymond Gubbay Ltd. in the National Concert Hall Dublin. We have a wide repertoire of many choral works such as Handel’s Messiah, Bach’s St. Matthew's & St. John Passion, Verdi’s Requiem, Haydn’s The Creation & Seasons, Brahms Requiem & many more.
