RTÉ Cór na nÓg

The RTÉ Cór na nÓg (RTÉ Children's Choir in English) was founded in 1987 and consists of 65 specially-selected children between the ages of 9 and 14 directed by conductor Máire Mannion [ [http://www.rte.ie/performinggroups/cornanog/about.html About] ] .

The choir is part of the RTÉ Performing Groups.
