Cliogaree Twoaie

Cliogaree Twoaie is a popular mixed choir singing an extended repertoire of traditional and modern Manx songs and performing under the leadership of Clare Kilgallon.

The choir was founded in 1984 when some members of Bock Yuan Fannee dance group decided that it would be a good idea to branch out to perform some traditional Manx Gaelic songs. Specialising in Manx carvals (carols), the group numbers around 25. Cliogaree Twoaie has performed widely on the Island and featured at the International Pan-Celtic Festival in Ireland and the Lowender Peran festival in Cornwall.
