Unique
We are a small mixed voice chamber choir based in Paisley, now in our 47th season. We sing a cappella, or with piano or with The Arkleston Chamber Ensemble. We normally give 2 regular concerts per year, with an eclectic selection of sacred and secular pieces..
We like to sing an adventurous and eclectic repertoire of modern liturgical music from living composers, but also sprinkled with lighter items. We have often featured works by modern composers which are Scottish, European or, occasionally, world premières.
Most recent activity

The Rivers and Roses concert in January was very well received. It featured songs with a river theme such as Shenandoah and Afton Water,  versions of Burns' Red Rose, and a stomping new arrangement of The Wellerman, The Song of the Clyde provided a suitably popular conclusion.

Thanks to Marcus Kitchen and Stuart Hope for allowing use of their arrangements.
