On entering the Cathedral, Monaghan Gospel Choir commenced the second half of the concert with "Just a Closer Walk with Thee". Under the direction of Mr. David Drum, the choir performed a repertoire of songs, with various members of the choir performing solo items. The junior members delighted the audience with their version of "Voice of an Angel". The pianist for the evening was Mr S. McFadden, Monaghan.
The Rector, Canon Noel Regan, expressed his gratitude to Miss Shirley Fannin for the organisation of the evening.
