70th Anniversary Concert
15 March 2025
We recently performed the first concert of our year-long programme of events to commemorate our 70th anniversary in the McPherson Recital Room, Laidlaw Music Centre. Featuring music around the themes of war and lament, we performed music by Palestrina, Tallis and Jannequin, with performances by Emma Montgomery on border pipes. It was a wonderful occasion, and attracted some excellent reviews!
“What a magnificent concert it was! The mix of storytelling and singing interspersed with the border pipes was just such a wonderful programme. Honestly, I can’t praise it highly enough. Thank you so very much indeed for having put on such a concert. It was a great privilege to hear it, and I would absolutely listen again if you are planning to do another performance of it as this is your 70th year.” – Veronica Whymant
