For over forty years Dunfermline Arts Guild has been providing live chamber music concerts on Sundays in Dunfermline for members and friends. In our 2019–20 season we offered a wide range of talented performers, interpreting “classical” in the broadest sense. Concert details are still available through this linked page. Although we announced at the end of last season that special guests The Wallace Collection were to perform at our opening concert on 11 October, all public theatre and music events are currently on hold due to COVID-19, and our 2020–21 season has had to be abandoned. Regrettably you’ll have to watch this space or join our mailing list to hear about our plans for the 2021–22 season. Meantime, those with internet access have been enjoying on-line offerings from a variety of sources, the latest of which is advertised below:
Brass ensemble The Wallace Collection were due to open our 2020/21 concert season back in October, and they have now offered music societies the chance to see and hear them live on Sunday 31 January at 18:15. The event is entitled Behind the Scenes with The Wallace Collection and is a Zoom meeting, which you can join using the details which have been circulated to all our email contacts, or which you can get by contacting our Secretary, Morag Hawkins, at secretary@dunfermlinemusic.org. John Wallace says: “We will quickly go round you all at the beginning just to say hello. Will be more of a chat-show with musical examples than a concert in the circumstances, but we hope you will find it interesting. We’ll ask people to post questions in the chat box on Sunday and we’ll gather those up and answer during or at the end.” Please feel free to join the audience. And please do give us your feedback on whether this alternative musical experience is something you would like to do again, with our help.
