Anúna A Mystical Christmas
A Mystical Christmas
The original choir of Riverdance
Anúna makes many a music lover's heart beat faster. The internationally renowned choir enchants its audience with angelic singing and chants of unparalleled class. It is now a tradition that Anúna visits our country in December with a tour.
Led by composer, arranger and tenor Michael McGlynn, the singers cherish their direct contact with the audience. They regularly move gracefully through the aisles while singing. Thus, the listener is literally surrounded by a tapestry of flawless angelic singing, rhythmic songs and meditative songs. The rarely beautiful polyphony betrays great practice and discipline.
Anúna draws inspiration for its richly varied repertoire from religious sources as well as old world folk tales. The Christmas program includes well-known carols.
Through the combination of breathtakingly beautiful a cappella singing, beautiful costumes and flickering candlelight, Anúna creates an atmosphere guaranteed to transport you into heavenly spheres.
'Michael McGlynn is a remarkable composer and choral leader. Medieval texts and traditional airs are recast in his beautiful and startling music' - Elvis Costello
