What better way to finish off the week than sitting in the Old Kirk on a Spring evening listening to the fine singing or a choice selection of familiar tunes?

Langtoun Singers invite you to do just that, joining them and their guests for a mixture of music whose variety will bring delight to the audience. For this ninth Music in May, the Langtoun Singers with their conductor, Ella Wilson, will be joined by the Langtoun Salon Orchestra, and a performance by classical guitarist Kieran McCrossan from Kirkcaldy.

Music in May is the Langtoun Singers’ summer concert and is always their charity fundraiser. This year the choir has chosen as the recipients of funds Alzheimer Scotland, Action on Dementia.
