Mullingar Concert Band

CONDUCTOR: Vincent Dolan

The Mullingar Concert Band was launched in Autumn 2021 with the aim of encouraging adult musicians of varying standards to join together to play music, learn, socialise and have fun.

It is a part of, but also a natural extension of the renowned Mullingar Town Band with many of its members having previously played with the Town Band over the years. The group practice a variety of concert band music from different genres and perform from three times a year, as well as teaming up with the marching band for more regular engagements.

Sweet Tunes Choir

CHOIR DIRECTOR: Angela Lynch

Sweet Tunes Choir is now in its eleventh year under the musical direction of Angie Lynch. From very small beginnings of some eight members, it has now grown to a sizeable membership of 55 plus energetic and fun-loving retirees.

During its eleven-year history the group has grown in confidence and has outgrown not only its unison singing but also, it’s two- part singing – and nowadays boasts a strong mixed voice ensemble singing in three parts.

The Group meets once a week for a two-hour session in Mullingar Arts Centre by kind invitation of Sean Lynch, Centre Director.

The choir has previously participated in the Mayo Choral Festival and this is its third visit to the Navan Choral Festival. Sweet Tunes are in high demand locally in Mullingar and sing at many charitable fund raisers. They also have a very strong presence over the Christmas period and perform at Christmas Concerts and also at the Christmas Market.

The Choir are very grateful to our accompanist Paul Whelan, for his assistance in preparing for today, and his beautiful piano playing
