Celebrating choral music from the country's top choirs. The last programme of the series features the Derry/Londonderry choir Cantamus and actress Christina Bennington.
A celebration of Northern Ireland's great tradition of singing and choral music, and some of the great soloists that it has produced. This week Sing Out features the Derry/Londonderry choir Cantamus and the actress Christina Bennington who, whilst definitely a product of our choral tradition, is now appearing in Showboat in the West End! And since it's the last programme in the current series there's a quick look back at all the other singers and a few of the choirs that have been featured.
