RTÉ musicians are featured on five new 55 cent stamps. An Post says the stamps are a fitting tribute to the broadcaster's performing groups, each of which make a significant contribution to Irish cultural life.
The report features the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra in concert. Alan Smale, leader of the RTÉ NSO talks about the benefit the performing groups will receive from the publicity of featuring on the stamps.
Enlarged versions of the stamps are shown. Donal Connell Chief Executive, An Post says stamps still have a place in Irish life.
Sinéad Whyte, of RTÉ Cór na nÓg says it is, "So so cool to feature on a stamp."
