The Irish Doctors Choir recently held a fundraising concert for Children in Crossfire in the Guildhall.
The choir performs regularly throughout Irish raising money for good causes, led by Irish conductor Brian McKay.
He has been at the helm since the choir was formed in 2017 when the European Doctors Orchestra (EDO) started planning for a performance of Mahler’s Symphony No 2 “Resurrection” at the Ulster Hall, Belfast.
The magnificent finale of this masterpiece requires the addition of a chorus to the sizeable orchestral forces involved in the performance. The Belfast EDO Committee decided to recruit singers from Irish healthcare settings and to offer some EDO-sponsored places to medical students and they haven’t stopped playing since.
