Sonata Singers

Sonata Singers are a small group of ladies from Co. Louth, who got together
in February 2000 and have been going from strength to strength ever since. We meet every Tuesday evening in Teach Mhuire, in Drogheda.  We have been competing in festivals all over Ireland, Scotland and of course our favourite, Wales, where we have been very successful.  Our highlights so far
have been a trip to Vienna in 2006 to sing in the Advent Festival - magic and last year we sang in St. Peter's basillica in Rome and also at the audience for the Pope.
