Richard had always enjoyed his singing, but at an amateur level. And for a long time, he had wondered what it would be like to sing at a professional level, as a cathedral layclerk. And so he set started looking for positions, and ended up being offered a role in one of the two cathedral choirs in Dublin. It seemed like a fantastic opportunity, but a much larger upheaval than he had originally envisaged. Not only was he moving to a new city, but a new country. On top of finding a new home and a new day job (one that would fit in with his cathedral duties) but he would have establish a new life in Ireland.

Luckily, the move was a success, and Richard quickly settled into Dublin. The other layclerks at the cathedral were a friendly and talented bunch, and the music-making was first rate. Richard was enjoying the best singing of his entire life, and quickly found a flexible and rewarding day-job. The risk had paid off, and Richard was glad he had made the move.
