Scottish Opera & NHS Lothian

Chorus

This spring, we are launching a new Community Chorus in Edinburgh, in partnership with Tonic Arts and NHS Lothian. Please note, this chorus is open 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 Madeleine Coxshott, Producer via the contact form below:

Registrations are now open for term 1.
