The Irish Chamber Orchestra (ICO) takes to Connemara later this week, when it performs in Our Lady Star of the Sea Church in Roundstone. The programme will include the world premiere of Hup! by Micheal O Suilleabhain and Wait and See by Elaine Agnew.

The ICO says it has been "bowled over" by the support in the Co Galway village for the concert. Also performing with the ICO will be the Presentation Headford Choir, directed by Mairead Berrill. Tickets are selling fast, and further information is available from Roundstone branch library or telephone (095)35834.
