Scottish Opera & NHS Lothian
Chorus
The Scottish Opera & NHS Lothian Chorus returns to Edinburgh for a new winter term! In partnership with Tonic Arts and NHS Lothian, this chorus is exclusive to NHS Lothian Staff only.
Led by Alistair Digges, we’ll be singing a mix of opera, classical and popular music. You don’t need to read music, and you don’t need to have sung in a choir or chorus before. Just come along, and see what fun singing in a group setting can be!
The Scottish Opera & NHS Lothian Chorus focuses on the many performance elements needed onstage in an integrated, music-led drama, and will develop your confidence in performing. We welcome NHS staff to join each term by purchasing a Community Chorus Membership. We charge for memberships on a Pay What You Can basis. Please scroll down this page to buy a membership.
No participant will miss out due to financial circumstances. For more information on instalment payments and free memberships, please e-mail Scu Moncur-Kemp, Head of Education Development via the contact form below:
