Billy Elliot the Forum

I would agree with the previous description of Libera. I saw them perform last Saturday in San Antonio and thoroughly enjoyed it. Several times I was moved to tears by the beauty of the harmonies and the angelic sound that they produce. Amazing that they can memorize all the songs, along with where they're supposed to stand for each song. And the soloists come across as relaxed, old pros. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to tackle something like that when I was their age. I would definitely recommend going to see them should they come to a venue near you.

The official Libera website has posted new US concert dates for the Fall/Winter of this year and Spring of next year:

It will come as no surprise that those dates fall during UK school holiday dates.

Libera must have substantial financial backing to make three transatlantic trips possible in one year, especially with only five concerts announced to date. More power to them, for making the journey so often!

There is a rare UK Libera concert in Guildford (about 40 mins by train from London Waterloo) on Sat 16th May at 7.30pm. Some tickets still available.

Libera has released a new video to commemorate those who emigrated from Ireland to America. The song is America:

Actually, the title of the song is "America the Beautiful."

For the many Libera fans:
A new video release from Libera in America - One of my favorites Voca Me -
it gives me goosebumps.

The concerts in South Korea, scheduled for July, 2015, have been postponed until the Spring of 2016, due to the MERS outbreak there:

Libera will be performing at two special venues at the end of this month: 27 July 2015 Exeter, UK, Exeter Cathedral, Time: 7.30pm
and 28 July 2015 Christchurch, UK Christchurch Priory Time: 7.30 pm.

Both are glorious venues; Christchurch Priory could easily be a cathedral, and is over 900 years old.
