"Good Works" is a unique Art Service conducted by renown Irish artist John Byrne. Art is the focus of Adoration and a source of Salvation and Redemption in this ceremony of song, chant and spoken word. Byrne has written 'Hymns' for the renowned Palestrina Choir scored by Composer Elaine Agnew and conducted by Blanaid Murphy. This project is supported by Cavan County Council Arts Office, The Department of Tourism Culture & Arts, and the Artist in the Community Scheme managed by Create - the national agency for collaborative arts. It is especially commissioned for the Fleadh Cheoil 2012 and follows Byrne's spectacular Casting Light Projection that he was commissioned to produce in association with DV4 for The Fleadh Cheoil 2010/11. Casting Light won the Allianz Business to Arts Award 2011 for Best Commissioning Practice.
