Cluny 2010 Organ & Choral Concert |
| |
The 1,100th anniversary of the founding of the Abbey of Cluny in Burgundy, France presents Scotland with a chance‐in‐a‐lifetime to be part of wonderful pan‐European celebrations. They started in Cluny in September 2009 and will reach their climax there in September, 2010. The Cluny 2010 Scotland Joint Organising Committee has set up a programme of events to take place between 14th‐16th May, 2010 centred on Paisley Abbey, Renfrewshire and Crossraguel Abbey, by Maybole, Ayrshire.
The associated sites of Kelburn Castle and Country Park, Dundonald Castle and Maybole Castle will also be part of the celebrations programme.
The glorious interior of Paisley Abbey will be the backdrop for a concert with a strong French theme both in the music and the famous two manual and pedal organ built by the Parisian Aristide Cavaillé-Coll in 1872. Performances will include Requiem by Duruflé and French music from the 13th and 14th centuries.
Students must present a valid student identity at the door on the night.
