I note that the Classical Thursday series of song recitals has resumed for a second season at St Columba's Church,Ennis. The series initiated by soprano Helen Houlihan last Summer gathers a mix of heavy hitters of the opera world with rising stars in the treasure that in the quirky neo Gothic Anglican church on Bindon Street. Here is the line up.
And a report from the archive on the launch last year. It is great to see this initiative continue. A high standard of music making is guaranteed.

My review of Owen Gilhooly's recital at this venue last year is here http://cathydesmond.blogspot.ie/2013/08/gilhooly-sparkles-at-classical-thursday.html. Owen Gilhooly's Opera project, Mid West Opera presents on eof the one act operas at Opera at Castalia in Kilkenny this weekend.
This sounds like fun. Three one act operas based on texts by JM Synge will be performed in the open air amphitheatre in Ballytobin with the contingency plan of moving to a hall in case the weather is inclement, The cast features many emerging professional artists Worth a punt if you are in the or around county Kilkenny on Saturday evening .
