St Mary's College Singers
St Mary’s College Singers is a mixed-voice choir, made up of four sections: Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass. Our repertoire is wide and varied, with plenty to suit all tastes. Currently, we have over 60 members, all associated with St. Mary's College, Rathmines in some way ..,past pupils, parents, siblings and relatives of current or past pupils.
Our talented Choir Director, Maria Stanley, guides us in performing both secular and spiritual choral music. We've had the opportunity to showcase our talents in concerts both locally and internationally, with performances in Italy, UK, Portugal, and
France.
We regularly participate in official college ceremonies, choral competitions (we've been lucky enough to have won a few!), Christmas Carol events and Music Festivals. We've also had the privilege of singing at wedding and funeral ceremonies within our
extended choir family. We've sung in theatres, restaurants, pubs (a lot!), TV studios, shopping centres, airports, open-air events, on stages and under stages.
Our calendar runs from September to June each year, and we meet every Wednesday evening from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm to sing, work, and enjoy each other's company.
The choir brings together people who are interested in choral singing. We strive to develop and strengthen that passion, through hard work and good humour. We believe that the social life of the ensemble is meaningful and act accordingly! We always make sure to have a good time and appreciate the experience. It's important for us to live in the moment and savour and enjoy every part of our activities.
