“A darkened room.
A single clear beautiful female voice
sounds from it’s center.
She stands holding a candle,
cloaked and singing
in the ancient language of Ireland.
As the song continues
other cloaked women enter the room,
chanting softly in perfect harmony.
They gracefully move through the audience,
their voices filling the space.
The song fades and they stand waiting.
From the stage the men begin to sing,
a pulsating powerful Irish song .
The scene is set for Anúna."
