Borders Chamber Choir - Five Centuries of moving choral music

Formed less than two years ago, the Borders Chamber Choir has already earned a place among Scotland’s most exciting chamber ensembles.

Known for its refined, expressive sound, the choir brings together talented amateur and semi-professional singers who share a passion for excellence. Their concert programmes are rich, varied and musically ambitious, covering a wide range of accompanied and unaccompanied repertoire. This performance offers audiences in the Borders a rare opportunity to experience choral music of this calibre live, right here in Melrose.

This concert presents a broad programme spanning five centuries, from Gibbons and Purcell to Bach, Elgar, Vaughan Williams, MacMillan and beyond. Each piece highlights how these composers brought depth and nuance to both sacred and secular texts, showcasing the choir’s ability to convey profound emotion and musical sophistication.

Having a choir of this calibre in the Borders offers rare access to top-level choral artistry right here at home. It is an opportunity to experience live performances that rival those in Scotland’s major centres.

Adult ticket includes a glass of wine.
