The Discovery Gospel Choir, Ireland’s most diverse and inclusive choir which features 14 nationalities, performed for the first time in 19 months at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church on Sean MacDermott Street as part of the Global Village Live concert.
The concert, which was part of an event to promote inclusion and integration hosted by the North East Inner-City Intercultural Ambassadors Programme, took place on Sunday and is one of a number of events featuring singing from choirs amid the gradual return of singing groups in the south.
Commenting on the long-awaited return of singing groups, choir member Merlin Tayouo stated that it was a big relief as “Discovery is not just about friends, it’s a family. You have the chance to meet people here who come from different cultures”.
