Music Performances in New York
Dr Róisín Blunnie and Dr Seán Doherty, together with a group of students from the Bachelor of Religious Education and Music programme, travelled to New York to represent DCU at the St Patrick’s Day festivities in the city. The group performed at the St Patrick’s Day Parade on 5th Avenue, and at mass in St Patrick’s Cathedral, as well as at the American-Irish Historical Society and the Queens Chamber of Commerce.
