The Choral Scholars of University College Dublin presented the annual Choral Celebration of Christmas in Newman University Church in December 2024. The programme, which played to an audience of nearly 1,000 alumni and friends over three evenings, was led by Artistic Director Dr Desmond Earley and featured special guests Geraldine O’Doherty (harp) and Tristan Russcher (piano). Attendees enjoyed festive music and works by Benjamin Britten, Francis Poulenc, and Andrej Makor, as well as Magnum nomen Domini Emmanuel, composed by Laura Sheils for the Choral Scholars in 2023, and premiered at the 2024 concert.
