This year’s ‘BBC Northern Ireland School Choir of the Year’ has become ‘School Soloist of the Year’, as pupils across Northern Ireland once again get the opportunity to demonstrate their incredible vocal talents. Year 13 student Dara Murray was entered for the competition performing ‘The Town I Loved so Well’ and ‘Me and Bobby McGee’ and recently received the great news that he has been shortlisted for the heats stage of the competition, which will take place between 6th-10th December. The competition received a remarkable number of entries, so to be shortlisted really is a testament to his very high standard of singing. We are already incredibly proud of Dara and we wish him the best of luck in the next stage of the competition.
