Blessington Millennium Choir was founded as an ecumenical initiative to celebrate the Christian Millennium Year 2000 in Blessington.
Under the direction of Yvonne O’Conor, the choir boasts between 28-30 voices of all ages, including sopranos, altos, tenors and basses. They sing for their own pleasure and, on occasion, have joined with other choirs.
BMC sings to celebrate important occasions like Christmas and Easter and to raise much-needed funds for local and national charities. In the past few years, they have performed in Germany, France, and the UK, as well as supporting a number of charities here in Ireland.
Rehearsal Information: Tuesday evenings from 7:30-9:30pm
