Favourite Hymns of the Irish Guards

"I was delighted to hear that the Irish Guards Choir was producing a CD of favourite hymns, because it will mean a much wider audience will hear their superb singing. I have been privileged to be at a number of their performances and no one ever goes away disappointed. They are passionate about their music and bring such energy and conviction to their singing and performances, The choir is, of course, very proud of their name and association with such a famous and distinguished Regiment, with many having served with The Irish Guards. No one can fail to be moved by the emotion of their performance of these hymns, I am sure this CD will be a tremendous success." - Derek Twigg. Ex-minister for Veterans.

A Century of Micks

"We at Regimental Headquarter much appreciate the tremendous contribution made by the Irish Guards Singers to the community of Merseyside and beyond. Over the past twelve years of the groups existence Regimental Headquarters have received many letter of praise and congratulations from the general public concerning the high quality and broad repertoire of the North of England Branch choir.

The CD recording produced here is one of quality which identifies the fun and ‘mickishness’ which is so much part of the character of the Irish Guards, Sandy Faris’s new composition “A Century of Micks” is sung by the choir with panache and swagger. The remaining songs, particularly the tribute to Fr. Casey and “A Silent Night” are all worthy inclusions in a well thought out and enjoyable disk. I congratulate the choir on this impressive recording." - Lt Colonel R.J.S.Bullock-Webster OBE, Regimental Adjutant Irish Guards
