The RTÉ CO and Sinead O'Connor have been nominated in the World Soundtrack Awards.

The RTÉ Concert Orchestra’s recording of the song ‘Lay Your Head Down’ with Sinéad O’Connor, with music by Brian Byrne and lyrics by Glenn Close, has been nominated in the Best Original Song category at the World Soundtrack Awards.

The awards are adjudicated by the World Soundtrack Academy, and will be handed out at the Ghent International Film Festival in Belgium, which will be held in October of this year.

‘Lay Your Head Down’ is taken from the Dublin-set film Albert Nobbs, which stars its lyricist, Glenn Close. It is up against songs from The Muppets, The Help, W.E. and Snow White and the Hunstman for the award.
