Today Mairead Carlin posted on her Instagram stories a photo of sheet music with the names of Brian Byrne as the arranger and the writer Oscar Wilde.
I searched for songs inspired by Oscar Wilde's work and found La Mer (a.k.a. Beyond The Sea in the English adaptation) among them. I could be very mistaken since Beyond The Sea of A New Journey does not mention Wilde directly and I found no other evidence of this relationship online.
So, I summon everyone to be a little detective today and try to find a solution to this quest.
PS: Is Brian Byrne the new Musical Director?? Or is it a collab, maybe... He has a pretty solid and successful career as a composer, I am inquisitive to hear his work on this song, at least.

Nice find! I was searching Oscar Wilde after Mairéad posted that story but I haven't found anything. This very well could be it!

Yes! I would love to see Susan perform with The Blue Belles if they have a date that works on our Ireland trip! 🤞

For the 20th Anniversary album, I'd say favorite songs being newly recorded by the current group. And maybe they'll include the dvd filming special guests on the album as well.

Muirgen is in studio now. New album incoming 🥰🥰
Emma and Muirgen were in the studio today recording some more!
This makes me hope that there's a Muirgen/Emma duet and a Mairéad/Tara duet!

Gregg and I haven't heard anything back yet either. We only got the first email saying that we have tickets.

I listen to Magic of Christmas year round - that and Ancient Land are my top two favorite albums! And yes, that note Mairéad hits in Auld Lang Syne is insanely gorgeous! 😍

I can't wait to hear Mairéad, Tara, Muirgen and Emma together! This is going to be outstanding!
If they had a guest along who would you want.
Some of these I'd say are unlikely, but my personal wish list for guests would be Éabha, Megan, Susan, Lynn, Alex.

Éabha has a lot of information on the Celtic World Forum website - daily schedules and concert descriptions. It all sounds sooooo amazing and I can't wait!

The thing to remember is that with the Christmas tour only being approximately 20 shows and the US being such a large country, it's simply not possible for them to come to every state or to get really close to where every fan lives. For Twin Cities fans, the show in Iowa is a 3 hour drive. That's really darn close considering how big the US is. It's also probably easy for them to rebook with the same orchestras from year to year (Colorado, Utah, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, etc) and unfortunately there's some circumstance that we're unaware of that has them not performing with the Minnesota Orchestra.

I doubt a MN show would be on the 10th because they're in UT on the 11th. Too far apart in distance. MN could still be the 8th or 9th 🤞

Fabulous! It's going to be a front row filled with mega fans!

Give the box office a call about the first show - Gregg & I were able to move up to row A for all 3 shows and then Mike did that as well. We're all going to have such an amazing time!

Tracie,
I was looking at the DC shows and it looks like you can get tickets as part of a package, but you can’t select your seat only the section. Have you found a way to pick your seats?
Our seat assignments are listed in our Kennedy Center account now. They gave us second row dead center for all three shows. Fabulous! That was from us selecting premium orchestra for section. Update - called the box office and upgraded to front row center for all 3 shows!
