Gala Christmas Concert

Gala Christmas Concert

Friday, 7 December 2012

Our thanks to everyone who braved a chilly winters evening to join us at Greyfriars Kirk in Edinburgh for our annual Christmas Concert.  

Hosted by Jamie MacDougall, one of the country's most versatile singers, performers and voice of BBC Radios Scotland's classical music we were treated to a varied programme of Mozart, R Vaughan Williams, Handel, Tchaikovsky, Bellini, Verdi, Strauss, Carols and much more.  

All beautifully performed by the Orchestra and Chorus of the Canongait and conducted by their founder Robert Dick.  With the enchanting voices of mezzo-soprano Jennifer McEwan, tenor Adam Magee, baritone Ivor Klayman and soprano Simone Sahyouni it was a beautiful evening and the perfect way to get ready for Christmas.

Not only were the surroundings festive and music enchanting the evening raised a terrific £6,000 to go towards out work!
