LOCAL musicians from across Moray and the Highlands will join together to perform a special charity concert at Findhorn's Universal Hall.
Members of the Nairn Gaelic Choir and the Elgin Strathspey and Reel Society will perform at the Moray venue on Saturday, March 25 at 7:30pm to raise money for Alzheimer Scotland.
Nairn Gaelic Choir is a 4-part acapella choir, whose main purpose is to keep alive the Gaelic language through performance of traditional and modern Gaelic songs.
The choir was formed in 1991 and since then has competed in the annual National Mod, winning their competition several times and appearing on television, while also visiting other competitions and festivals over the years, including Vancouver, Canada and Tralee, Ireland.
Most of the choir’s repertoire is in Gaelic, although they do have a few non-Gaelic songs, and do a lot of carol singing around Christmas.
Originally formed in 1936, the Elgin Strathspey & Reel Society is a Scottish Fiddle Orchestra dedicated to promoting Traditional music. The society is conducted by Stephen Cooper and plays in many concerts in the local area, as well as making trips abroad to promote its music.
The concert will be a rousing evening of Traditional music and song in aid of the worthy charity, Alzheimer Scotland.
Tickets are available from www.universalhall.co.uk (+10% online booking fee) or from the Phoenix Community Store in Findhorn.
Tickets cost £10 for General Admission and £5 for Under 16’s.
