After 2 hours on Mozart’s Mass in C minor, a few of our fellow choristers still found enough voice to celebrate Scotland’s transfixing win over Denmark in last night’s World Cup Qualifiers at Hampden Park. #Scotland #WorldCup2026 😅💪🏼🎶

Aren’t these wonderful experiences, Eluned? Audiences are in raptures, and as you say, many never having been to a symphony orchestra concert before. This from our last concert with Eimear Noone in May 2023 at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh. 🙌🏼🎶
