St. Mary's Catholic Church, College Station has been known to house several artful performances. Among the notable ones were the concerts given by her resident Schola cantorum and Korean Choir to TAMU's Trombone Ensemble.

The sixth generation of the Omagh Community Youth Chair performed tonight at 7 o'clock as a part of their US tour that includes Texas and Lousianna.













Amongst the principal aims of the choir is to raise a positive awareness of a community working together for peace and reconciliation, and to help counteract the negative images of Omagh and Northern Ireland. The choir promotes these images through their extensive musical repertoire of songs, which includes Irish traditional, pop, musical theatre, gospel, sacred and contemporary Irish music.


The energetic 30-song ensemble packed an audience of around 300 and encored with two songs, the last one, O Sole Mio, was comically solo-ed by the Music Director Darryl Simpson.

Among the selections were Let Us Love in Peace, Circle of Life from The Lion King, and a Swahili cant.
