Chaplaincy

Chapel Music

The University of Glasgow Chapel Choir and University Organist

The University of Glasgow Chapel Choir provides music for services and events in the chapel and elsewhere, as well as giving concerts and recitals throughout the academic year, such as the weekly "Choral Contemplations" series in the first and second terms. It also records and tours nationally and internationally, has recorded several CDs, and is available for weddings and memorial services.

There are thirty-two regular members (a mixture of volunteers, paid choral exhibitioners and professional lay clerks) plus around ten associate singers who join us for concerts and some other events. All are auditioned regularly and receive free singing tuition.

The choir is directed by Katy Lavinia Cooper (Director of Chapel Music) and accompanied by Kevin Bowyer (University Organist).

Richard Deering

Music in the University
Date: Thursday 10 October 2024
Time: 13:10 - 14:00
Venue: Concert Hall
Category: Concerts and music

Recognised as an authority on British music through his lectures, concerts, broadcasts, recordings and writings, Richard Deering performs a piano recital concert of music by Scottish Composers.

In the past, he has been entrusted with many first performances by leading composers – while many composers have written especially for him. Apart from solo and lecture-recitals, he is very busy as an accompanist and chamber musician and has given lighter programmes of music and ‘chat’. He has considerable experience as a teacher and has also served on competition juries throughout the British Isles and around the world.

This concert is part of the Thursday Lunchtime concert series, and is free to attend. 

Doors open at 12.45pm, and seats are allocated on a first come first served basis. Please arrive early to avoid disappointment.
