This year, as part of the McLellan Arts Festival, some Arran singers will be joining the wonderful young opera students from the Royal Northern College Manchester in a joyous oratorio – Rossini’s Petite Messe Solennelle. And they need more Arran singers.
For the past five years a community choir from Arran, which has been named the McLellan Festival Chorus, has sung with the students from Peter Wilson’s summer school.
Those who have done it have loved it and there is no need to be nervous if you have not done it before or don’t know the Rossini – it is all made possible somehow and the results are amazing.
