One of Ireland’s most multicultural choirs has recorded a defiant anthem of unity and hope as the country emerges from lockdown.

Members of the Fermoy International Choir in north Cork, which is made up of almost 100 members from 24 countries, recorded a cover of the Simon and Garfunkel classic, 'Bridge Over Troubled Water', to signify defiance against the Covid-19 pandemic and which they have dedicated to all those who call Fermoy home.
