On Sunday 1st March, the choir of St Fin Barre’s Cathedral travelled to St Nicholas’s Collegiate Church, Galway and sang the Sunday services together with their choir. 

They sang the Missa brevis by Grayston Ives, with Matthew Breen from Cork at the organ and conducted by Mark Duley of Galway. At Evensong Peter Stobart from Cork conducted Bruckner’s anthem Christus factus est and the Canticles in B minor by Noble. 

The church generously laid on a hot lunch for their visitors, and the Very Rev’d Lynda Peilow, Rector of St Nicholas’s Collegiate Church, welcomed the choir and the Dean of Cork, the Very Rev’d Nigel Dunne, who had also travelled from Cork with the choir.
