The ninth Arran Summer School is nearly here and this year a wonderful collection of 16 young singers from the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester will be making their way to the island, writes Hugh Boag.
The summer school begins on Sunday September 2 with the church service at noon in Corrie Parish Church. Organisers have chosen some wonderful sacred music, which will give ample scope for these talented young musicians.
The first concert on Friday September 7 will contain a variety of well-loved opera arias and ensembles, including the Pearl Fishers Duet, the Easter Hymn from Cavalleria Rusticana, a selection from Bizet’s Carmen among others.
