On Tues 24th October, the parents choir of Corpus Christi School, Moyross will perform at the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance. The choir formed in 2018, facilitated by Dr Jess O’Donoghue and Ms Sarah Alley from UL Music Therapy Department. This community engaged project has been formally adopted as a community engagement activity of the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance and was recently showcased as a UL Engaged Research project. MA students from the music therapy programme at UL support children and parents, while three PhD students have undertaken collaborative research with participants. We are delighted to welcome this uplifting choir to the academy for a performance and celebration of creativity, life and hope.
