THE CLERKS CHORAL OF ST. MARY’S COLLEGIATE CHURCH, YOUGHAL sings THE OFFICE OF COMPLINE in plainsong Sunday 22nd April, 6pm Church of St. Anne Shandon Admission: Free of charge The College of Clerks Choral in Youghal is an ancient institution, founded in 1464 by Thomas Fitzgerald, Earl of Desmond. The College originally consisted of eight fellows and eight singing clerks – a choral foundation which was dissolved and reinstated a number of times over the centuries. The present choir represents the latest revival initiated by Ian Sexton in 2005. Although the Clerks Choral, now directed by Colin Nicholls, remains informally associated with the magnificent Collegiate Church in Youghal, the group is most active in venues throughout Munster, singing for services, weddings and concerts. They have also performed in England and their rendition of Compline in St. Anne’s Church, Shandon, has become a regular feature of the Cork International Choral Festival. Compline is the last monastic service of the day. It is a contemplative office with an emphasis on peace. In essence a plainsong service, a Faux Bourdon setting of Nunc Dimittis (Carolus Andreas) and Henry Purcell’s motet, Remember not, Lord, our offences, provide moments of contrasting harmony. http://www.corkchoral.ie/portfolio/the-office-of-compline-4/ Culture Night 2017 Friday 22nd September We are delighted to have Cork Chamber Choir return to St Anne's Church, Shandon to perform as part of the Cork Culture Night 2017 programme.

As well as this wonderful performance there will be access to the Church from 6pm - 7:30pm where you can learn about the history of the building and be entertained with some wonderful music by organist Victor Sullivan.

Join Tom Spalding and David Ryan of Cork Decorative and Fine Arts Society as they discuss the ongoing Church Recording Project in St Anne’s Shandon. Cork DFAS was founded in 2013 and is devoted to the conservation of the artistic and cultural heritage of Cork and the advancement and study of the decorative and fine arts. Since May 2016, with the support of the vestry and clergy of the church, members of Cork DFAS have been engaged in an ambitious and innovative project to create a complete digital catalogue of the interior features of St Anne’s. This is the first time such church recording has been done in the Republic. http://www.heritageweek.ie/whats-on/event/cork-dfas-church-recording-project |
