Dana Rosemary Scallon: Guest Soloist on Saint Patrick’s Day

As part of the Saint Patrick’s Day celebrations at Knock Shrine, we are delighted to welcome Dana Rosemary Scallon as guest soloist at the 12 noon Mass at Knock Basilica.

Dana will perform her new hymn entitled ‘Light The Fire,’ written and recorded by Dana, it recalls how St Patrick lit the flame on the hill at Slane.

‘Light the Fire’ was launched at The Saint Patrick Centre in Downpatrick earlier this week and has been recorded with male voices from the Schola Cantorum in St Peter’s Cathedral Belfast and two singers from the Church of Ireland in Downpatrick.

Music will also be provided by the combined choirs of Knock, directed by Úna Nolan. Please note that this Mass will be broadcast live on EWTN Global Catholic TV Network.
