Songs from the Garden- RTE1 4:55pm
On Sunday 19th July at 4.55pm on RTE 1 Craig Doyle will present Songs from the Garden, a unique musical and spiritual celebration of the life of Enniskerry, his adopted home town and the jewel of the Garden County. All three churches in the village - St Patrick’s (Church of Ireland), St Mary’s (Roman Catholic) and St Brigid’s (Church of Ireland) – were founded in the same year, 150 years ago. The Church of Ireland and Roman Catholic Archbishops of Dublin, Dr John Neill and Diarmuid Martin, lead a pilgrimage through the village of Enniskerry, to celebrate this special anniversary. Leading the musical celebrations, Shaun Davey, Rita Connolly and Liam O’Flynn join a host of classical artists and the combined choirs of the three churches in performances from majestic Powerscourt.
