Kilkenny Retirement homes to embark on a Melodic Journey of Wellbeing and Connection 

Our program is a heartfelt ode to health and wellbeing, crafted with the wisdom of key partners to ensure accessibility and enjoyment for our cherished older audiences. We believe in a gentle pace and the power of reflection, providing ample time for meaningful conversations and shared experiences.

Musical Encounters Across:

• Five Unique Venues: Each county will host the concerts in five distinct settings.
• Four Enchanting Visits: Every venue will be graced with four visits, weaving a tapestry of melody and memory over the project’s span.

A Collaborative Chronicle: In partnership with our neighboring county of Wexford—Kilkenny, we’re hope to capture the essence of these gatherings. Our goal is to collect a mosaic of reactions, melodies, and heartfelt engagement, creating a visual anthology that deepens our communal bonds and inspires future celebrations.

Stellar Lineup of Talent: Each performance will feature a trio of exceptional artists, including a pianist, a cellist or violinist, and a renowned soloist, to stir the soul and lift the spirits.

Spotlight on Proposed Artists:

• Soloists: Mary Coughlan, Niamh Kavanagh, Sandra Oman, Jerry Fish, Anthony Kearns, Simon Morgan, Prof Luke O’Neill, Sibeal, Celine Byrne (subject to availability).
• String Virtuosos: Gerald Peregrine (cello) or Lynda O’Connor (violin).
