You have heard the shaping of this new opera every month through auditions and rehearsals. The opera is now called Shelter Me from the Rain and is all about the universal themes of love and weather. The opera is being led by conductor Fergus Sheil and has been composed by Brian Irvine, with words by John McIlduff and the voices of about a hundred people. The opening performance is tomorrow evening in the George Bernard Shaw theatre in Carlow and today we get to hear a preview of the opening song Shelter me from the Rain as the participants and the creative team describe how the project has gone. Athena Media will record the final performance of the opera and a full one hour documentary narrating the story of the project and the music will be broadcast during the summer on RTE Lyric fm. Presenter Paul Herriott will narrate the documentary. The documentary is due to air on Friday 1st July at 7pm on RTE Lyric fm. It will also be available as a podcast.
