The choir has performed regularly at St Giles Cathedral, most recently in November 2023 raising money for ‘The Welcoming’ which supports refugees and migrants in Edinburgh.

As well as our regular annual concerts, other musical ventures have included hosting a French choir for a weekend of shared music and friendship, introducing a youth choir from the USA to the joys of a Scottish ceilidh and singing in the Edinburgh Music Competition Festival.
