After more than a year of planning and waiting, the Susquehanna Chorale is ready to travel to Ireland to share some of the choral music its members have been performing locally for decades. The Mechanicsburg-based group adjusted its original plans to tour Poland and Austria due to the war in Ukraine and COVID policies.

The Susquehanna Chorale will depart on Monday, July 11, and return on Wednesday, July 20, with planned excursions to Dublin; the ancient monastic settlement of Clonmacnoise; the wild Connemara Region; the historic Kylemore Abbey, home to the Irish order of Benedictine nuns; the Aran Islands; and the Cliffs of Moher. The tour will conclude with stops in Killarney and an excursion around the Ring of Kerry.

Planned performances include recitals at Kylemore Abbey and St. Nicholas Collegiate Church in Galway on Wednesday, July 13; Saint Mary's Church of the Sloes in Killarney on Saturday, July 16; and St. Joseph's Parish Church in Dublin on Monday, July 18.
