The team at Music Generation Westmeath want to congratulate Samuel, a member and student of Athlone Youth Orchestra for a job well done in performing with the amazing and inspirational U2 on their 50th Anniversary as part of a music generation string ensemble represented by a young musician from each area!

A huge thanks to U2 and Music Generation Ireland for providing an amazing and once in a lifetime opportunity for young musicians through Ireland.

I'm sure members of Athlone Youth Orchestra can't wait to hear of Samuel's big adventure this week!
