- The Choral Scholars of University College Dublin are Ireland’s leading collegiate choral ensemble, and for their first recording on Signum they perform a blend of Irish & Scottish music themed around the themes of water and farewell

Ireland’s leading collegiate choral ensemble, The Choral Scholars of University College Dublin bring us their first recording on Signum.; The program of this album is a blend of Scottish and Irish music, themed around water and farewell.; Conductor Desmond Early says of the album, “It is happy coincidence that the title of this disc, Invisible Stars, and the motto of University College Dublin – Ad Astra (‘to the stars’)- connect in this… This recording is our celebration of creativity, talent, and youthful energy, and at the same time a gesture of remembrance toward the many ‘invisible stars’ who went before us a century ago.
