5th & 6th class sang in the ‘National Children’s Choir Regional Concert’ in the National Basketball Arena in Tallaght on Tuesday the 5th of April 2011. The children had been learning the repertoire of 16 songs in school since the beginning of the school year as part of their music curriculum. There were approximately 500 primary school children from all over Dublin singing as one choir, conducted by Anne Purcell (one of the National Children’s Choirs Musical Directors) and accompanied by a professional orchestra. The standard of singing & choral music was exceptionally high. You couldn’t sit in the audience and not be moved by the wonderful, sweet and beautiful singing of the children on stage. The children deserve great praise & credit for how well they behaved and preformed on the night. They kept their eyes firmly glued to the conductor and followed her every direction moving from loud to soft, fast to slow. As a young child of 8 I attended my first choral recital and came away from the concert wanting nothing more than to sing in a choir. Last night as I sat listening to the children singing I now understand how attending that concert would have made me feel that way about it and my hope is that some of the children who have had the opportunity to sing in the National Children’s Choir will get as much pleasure out of choral singing in the future as I have.

Affiliated pupils from 4th, 5th or 6th classes in Irish Primary Schools learn a common repertoire of songs in Irish, English or Latin that more than satisfies many objectives of the music programme at the senior end of the primary school. The repertoire challenges the pupils to perform a broad programme from Mozart to Michael Jackson. The choir enables young people to experience the sheer joy of involvement in music and song. Formed by Seán Creamer (then a music inspector with the Department of Education) in 1985 to celebrate ‘European Music Year’, the choir has enjoyed tremendous success to date. This year’s concerts (2011) will be the fourteenth in a series of bi-annual concerts. The aims of the National Children’s Choir are § To foster a love of choral singing among primary school pupils § To enhance the musical education of those involved Since 1985 over 100,000 children have enjoyed the experience of singing with the National Children’s Choir at a local level. This is a tribute to the dedication and commitment of teachers all over the country. The National Children’s Choir is a voluntary non-profit organisation run by primary school teachers for primary school children. Teachers who have a great love of music and want to give the children under their care the opportunity to experience & enjoy participation in music and choral singing.

Ghlac daltaí R5 & R6 páirt i gceolchoirm réigiúnach de chuid Cór Náisiúnta na nÓg san Ionad Cispheile Náisiúnta i dTamhlacht ar an Mháirt an 5 Aibreán 2011. Bhí an clár amhráin de 16 amhrán á fhoghlaim acu ó ó thús na scoil bhliana seo mar chuid den oideachas ceoil. Bhí suas le 500 daltaí ó scoileanna éagsúla i mBaile Átha Cliath ar an ardán agus iad ag canadh le chéile faoi stiúr Anne Purcell (duine de stiúrthóirí ceoil Cór Náisiúnta na nÓg) le tionlacan ceoil ceolfhoireann proifisiúnta. Bhí ard-chaighdeán amhránaíochta & ceol córach ag an gceolchoirm. Ní fhéadfá suí sa lucht féachana gan áileacht an cheoil, na hamhránaíochta agus na guthanna gleoite a aithint. Tá ard-mholadh ag dul do na páistí as cé chomh maith is a bhíodar agus a chanadar ar an oíche. Níor bhain siad na súile den stiúrthóir agus leanadar a cuid treoracha uile agus iad ag gluaiseacht á chanadh go ciúin go dtí go láidir, go tapaidh go dtí go mall. Mar pháiste óg 8 mbliana d’aois d’fhreastal mé féin ar mo chéad cheolchoirm córach. Nuair a bhí an ceolchoirm thart ba é a rud ba mhó a theastaigh uaim a bhaint amach i mo shaol ná canadh i gcór! Aréir agus mé suite sa lucht féachana tuigim anois conas a d’fhéadfadh freastal ar cheolchoirm córach dá leithéid an éifeacht sin a bheith aige orm. Tá súil agam go músclóidh an deis seo a bheith páirteach i gCór Náisiúnta na nÓg an grá don cheol i gcuid de na páistí le go mbainfidh siad an oiread pléisiúr as a gceol córach ‘sna blianta amach anseo is a bhain mise.
