The 10th anniversary of The Everyman's Sunday Songbook

The Everyman Sunday Songbook marks its 10th anniversary. Colette Sheridan reports.

CELEBRATING ten years, The Everyman Sunday Songbook will mark its anniversary with a special concert at the theatre on April 27. The loyal audience has been given the opportunity to select the songs that will be performed through making requests. There will be music from various genres with plenty of West End hits, opera, old time music hall, Gilbert & Sullivan, Percy French and Viennese music.

Soprano, Linda Kenny, devised the Sunday Songbook, working closely with former head of music at RTE Cathal McCabe. As well as Kenny and McCabe, the core group behind the Sunday Songbook comprises MC Michael Twomey and baritone, Damian Smith. (Former RTÉ deputy head of music and accomplished pianist Michael Casey won’t be involved).
