Lovely article in the Courier today!

A CELEBRATION of 10 years of a local choir which “gives a couple of hours of escape and optimism” for its members was a sell-out success.

Thank you to everyone who came to our anniversary concert, TEN, on Saturday night. It was the most ambitious concert we’ve ever undertaken with 40 singers, 8 musicians, bagpipes and drums and even confetti canons… and we loved every single minute of it! Here’s to the next ten years…

From boosting the brain to reducing pain, joining others in song can bring some wide-ranging benefits.

COCKENZIE and Port Seton Community Choir continued their 10-year anniversary celebrations with a tree-planting ceremony on November 1.

This weekend we had a tree planting ceremony in the beautiful grounds of Cockenzie House and Gardens to mark our tenth anniversary. We sang, we toasted each other and we celebrated everything the choir means to us.

Massive thanks to Graham Pettigrew for the beautiful plaque and to Inch Cape Construction Fund for funding the tree.

We had a brilliant day yesterday with a backstage tour at the Festival Theatre and then a workshop and rehearsal in the Studio Theatre to learn about using mics and stage lighting. We even got to see the War Horse puppets up close! Can’t wait til we get to put the skills into use at a very special event coming up soon…

One week to go until our Race Night! Join us for prizes, drinks and karaoke to raise funds for the choir. See you there!
