Galway Choral Association, Galway Gospel Choir and Ignite Gospel Choir will
perform a memorial concert for Monica Narciandi Junco, who was a member of all
three choirs. The concert will be held in St.
Nicholas’ Collegiate Church on Saturday June 9th at 8pm.
A native
of Gijon in the Northern Spanish province of Asturias, Monica came to Ireland
eleven years ago and worked as a main telephonist for the Revenue Commissioners
and before with the Department of Social Welfare and the Western Health Board
Galway.
“It
was one of Monica’s dearest wishes that all three choirs of which she was a
member would perform together. Tragically the first time that we performed
together was at her funeral service last October. We now come together again, to
celebrate Monica’s life on the occasion of what would have been her
40th
Birthday and to raise funds for the National Council for the Blind Galway,” said
Michael O’Hare chairperson of the Galway Choral
Association.
Tickets €10 ( €8 concessions) are on sale at Opus 11,
High Street, Galway ( 091 500 300)
and the National Council for the Blind,
