There’s a chill in the air, and the nights are drawing in. It can mean only one thing- festive choir rehearsals have begun! Our next concert on Saturday 6th December is a programme of beautiful, well-loved and lesser-known festive music from across the ages.

‘Oh my Love is like a red, red rose, That’s newly sprung in June’ This beautiful Scots song by Robert Burns (based on traditional sources) was first published in 1794, just two years before the poet’s death. The heartfelt yearning of the lyrics contributed to Burns’ reputation as a master of poetry of love and romance- a reputation that continues to this day. Hear this beautiful song and a medley of other melodies tomorrow evening at the Borders Chamber Choir summer concert! #robertburns #lovesong #folksongs #borderschamberchoir #melrose #music
