Fellow harp player Alyth agreed it had been “truly the greatest experience” and “definitely a moment I will carry with me forever”.
She said: “Standing on that stage, surrounded by my friends and the sound of Manx music filling such a legendary space, was both surreal and incredibly moving.
“Singing Manx Gaelic on the stage felt so magical, and hearing the audience cheer at the end of our performance is a memory I, and I’m sure the rest of the band, will treasure forever,” Aalish added.
The trip, organised by Culture Vannin’s Manx music development officer Chloe Woolley, also saw the group take part in the premiere performance of Causeway.
The new work by Scottish composer Aileen Sweeney, inspired by the folklore of the Giant’s Causeway, was performed by 1,000 young musicians and a 450-strong children’s choir.
That project, which featured lyrics by poet Iona Lee, was a collaboration between BBC Ten Pieces, the Royal Schools of Music exam board ABRSM, and the Royal Albert Hall.
