Saint Mary's Cathedral, Limerick

Saint Mary's Cathedral, Limerick

Location:
Limerick, Co. Limerick
Conductor:
Peter Barley

Whilst Saint Mary’s Cathedral is a church in the full tradition of the Church of Ireland, membership of that church is not a pre-requisite for joining the cathedral choir.

If you love singing, church/choral music and historic buildings, then why not get in touch with us? We’d be pleased to hear from you. You don’t need to be an expert singer. What we are looking for are young people with a pleasant singing voice, who are able to sing in tune and who have an interest in, and commitment to, this kind of music-making within the context of this magnificent medieval cathedral. Potential choir members should please contact the Organist and Choirmaster to arrange an informal meeting at the cathedral.
