Our members are mainly from around the Castlebar area, but with five from Ballinrobe, more from Swinford, Kilkelly and Ballyglass we now truly represent our county.
Under the musical direction of Deirdre Lee, from Kiltimagh, Deirdre has been our musical director since the choir’s inception, an honors music graduate of University College Maynooth, having studied under Professor Gerard Gillen. She has been involved in many musicals and events as musical director, arranged and conducted. Deirdre is a teacher of music, choir and orchestra in St. Joseph’s Secondary School, Castlebar. She has arranged many of the pieces we perform in four part for male voice. which were previously not available to us.

But sea and mountains
are all alike
And once again
the blood in my heart
urges me on to dare the wave
that calls out to me
the impulse of my heart
presses me again
to visit once more
some new lands
and set in search of the Wholly Other
start on yet another voyage
across more distant seas ...
