Singers, formed
in 1995, is a group of around 35 amateur singers based at St. Mary's
Episcopal
Cathedral in Edinburgh. We sing the Cathedral services about six times a year when the Cathedral Choir is on holiday. We also present two or three concerts a year in the Cathedral, plus a Christmas carol concert, usually at an alternative location. Past concerts have
included performances of Un Soir de Neige by Poulenc; Trois
chansons de Charles d'Orléans,
Debussy; Handel's Dixit Dominus;
Britten's Hymn to St Cecilia; Bach, St
John Passion; Copland's In the Beginning; Randall Thomson, The Peacable
Kingdom; John Rutter, Requiem; Mass in G, by
Schubert and more recently Lo, The Full Final
Sacrifice by Finzi and the Mozart Mass in C and Haydn's
Maria Teresa Mass. We usually audition in September - October each year. Please contact Anne by telephone or email for more details. Rehearsal and performance terms run from September to December and January to June with a long summer break: equivalent to university semesters. Our concerts usually take place in March, June and November.
