Ireland’s Got Talent judges left in tears over this performance airing tonight

Incredible.

The judges of Ireland's got Talent were left in tears after the moment a choir of 11 deaf students took to the stage for the performance of a lifetime. The choir known as The DeafTones performed the chart-topping single Photograph by Ed Sheehan and their rendition is one to watch.

This is without doubt, one of our favourite performances of the series so far. ??? Brand New: Ireland's Got Talent, Saturday at 7.30pm on TV3. #GotTalentIRL pic.twitter.com/rWj4I4ZlS9

Led by school conductor Shirley, the Dublin-based choir use signed harmonies, facial expressions and rhythms in their performances. Made up of girls 13 to 22, the choir was first set up by Shirley 11 years ago and now, she spends her days training and teaching students and choirs full of students of all ages. Lead singer Ciara explained how the choir gives them confidence saying to The Sun: "This choir group means everything to these girls because they wouldn’t be as confident as they are. They’re so excited to be here and so happy to be part of this." She continued by explaining about her background saying: "My brother, my two sisters and my mam and dad are all deaf. Being brought up hearing was completely different to all my friends." Ireland's Got Talent airs on TV3 on tonight at 7.30pm.
