St Andrews Madrigal Group – June 21

The St Andrews Madrigal Group visit Kirkcudbright this week for a summer concert of madrigals, sacred classics and folk songs, featuring music by Parry, Elgar, Vaughan Williams and Rachmaninov.

They’ll conclude their 2026 summer tour in Kirkcudbright Parish Church at 3 pm on Sunday June 21st. Admission is free, and there’s a retiring collection to help with running costs.

Here’s a taste of the Group’s performance in Kirkcudbright in 2023:

Founded in 1946, the Group is a student-led choir consisting of 16 singers, based in St Andrews.

The choir holds multiple concerts each semester during term, which include repertoire ranging from madrigals to contemporary choral works.

Alongside the concerts in St Andrews, the group also regularly tours around Europe and across the UK, and has recently performed at notable venues such as Ely Cathedral and HM Chapel Royal at Hampton Court.
