The Thomas Moore Festival, in association with the Royal Irish Academy, is delighted to announce that due to public demand, the travelling exhibition will undertake further touring in 2009.
This multimedia exhibition outlines the story of Moore's life and literary works, and his world-famous songs - the Irish Melodies. The audio "listening post" invites visitors to compare and contrast a number of recordings of these melodies made over the years and featuring a range of singers.
