They are usually the ones inspiring music students from throughout Limerick and the Mid-West region, however, for one night only the teaching staff from Limerick School of Music (LSOM) will be the ones in the spotlight as they perform at an upcoming Black-Tie Gala Fundraising Concert.

One of Limerick’s most iconic buildings, the Limerick Twenty Thirty-owned Gardens International venue on Henry Street will act as the perfect backdrop for the evening concert which takes place on Friday 26th of April at 8pm.

This is a very special event for the Limerick School of Music community with all proceeds from the event in aid of the LSOM Alumni and Friends Fund, which assists deserving students with their musical education, ensuring access to music education for all.
