Arklow Music Festival 2014

This year, the Nas na Singers competed in two competitions: “Adult Mixed Choir” and “Sacred Music”.  After a wonderful lunch and impromptu singing of “Ride the Chariot” in “The Tap Cafe” en route, the choir travelled on to Arklow where they were awarded the Michael Fitzpatrick Memorial Cup and gold medal for their performance in the Adult Mixed choir section, and achieved second place in the Sacred Music section.  The adjudicators, John Hughes and Roisin O’Grady, commented on the choir’s “superb rhythmic singing”, “lovely dynamic variation” and “very impressive choral tone”.  All-in-all, it was a great day out and a wonderful achievement for the choir.
