Christmas Season Going Well
Cadenza are over halfway through their Christmas programme for 2009, but they are by no means feeling complacent about the remaining engagements.The Erskine service in St Cuthbert’s Parish Church proved popular with late night shoppers as well as some of the residents of the Erskine Home, and Cadenza once again enjoyed performing alongside the St George’s School Choir and listening to readings from Alistair Hutton and Erskine staff members. We’ll post back here the total raised during the evening in due course.
Cadenza’s own Christmas Concert in Polwarth Parish Church was also well attended, with around 250 in the audience enjoying a varied choral repertoire of modern and traditional carols and Christmas songs, as well as some less well known Christmas pieces (like Gershwin’s Summertime!) by our guests, the effervescent Regal Brass. A real Christmas cracker, and put our local audience in high spirits!
The choir travelled along the M9 to Stirling the following evening after an invite from Historic Scotland to take part in an evening of music and entertainment in the Great Hall in Stirling. You can see photographs from that evening on our photos page.
Cadenza wrap up their Christmas engagements for this year with two Carols by Candlelight concerts with Raymond Gubbay – one in The Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow on the 22nd, one in The Usher Hall in Edinburgh on the 23rd. For more details, please see our concerts page.
We hope to see you at one of these concerts, but if not Cadenza wishes you and your family a peaceful festive season and look forward to welcoming you to a concert in 2010.
