On Sunday 28th November 2009, Kilkenny Gospel Choir hosted a gospel choir workshop in the Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel.  Fr. Willie Purcell led what was a very enjoyable afternoon.  We learned all about the origins of gospel music, along with the many different styles of singing within the genre of gospel music.  The joyful sounds of gospel music could be heard throughout the hotel as Fr. Willie directed the choirs in song. 

The afternoon finished all too soon for many of us, such was our enjoyment of the day.  We now wait in anticipation of the next workshop to be held in March 2010.
