Music and Poetry in Mountshannon
Recitals in St Caimin’s, Church Of Ireland, on 17th of December

We are delighted to bring you an evening of music and poetry to fill the senses.
The night will begin with a recital from Brid O’Gorman, Cyril O’Donoghue and Cli Donnellan presenting a mix of music, song and familiar melodies on the night. Each of these artists have independently produced their own CDs and have performed together with other musicians over the years. They are very excited to perform as a trio for this recital.
