Eddleston Voices is our village choir which meets on Thursday evenings at 7.30 during term time.  We have around 35 members from Eddleston and surrounding areas with new members always welcome.  There are no auditions, and you don’t need any prior experience so if you’re interested, come along, have some fun and meet new friends.

The Voices do a number of concerts /events during the year – including singing at the Christmas Eve Service, carol singing round the village and at Dovecote Court,  Music and Flowers’ Festival and our annual Music for a Summer evening concert

The choir thrived under our first Musical Director Lorraine Mulholland who took a group of enthusiastic volunteers and turned us into a choir.  Lorraine was an inspiration to us all and you can see a memorial to her in the Orchard

Following some Covid Zooming thanks to Ian and Anne Rogers, and a re-grouping in the Church under Andrew Henthorn, we’ve recently welcomed our new Musical Director Tricia Harwell.  Tricia’s encouragement  and teaching abilities shine through and have installed a new enthusiasm in the choir.  She is ably assisted by our accompanist Michael – a Peebles High School student who hopes to study music at university

The choir has an eclectic repertoire – from ABBA to David Bowie and the Beatles and from Les Mis to West Side Story.  Tricia also has us warming up to 6 part rounds!

For more info, drop Tricia a note at music.eddleston@gmail.com or just come along on a Thursday
