Baltic Renaissance: Scottish Ensemble in Greyfriars Kirk

Alan Coady, 11th December

Built on the site of a Franciscan friary which was dissolved in 1559, Greyfriars Kirk is one of the treasures of Edinburgh's 'Old Town'. A rich tradition of music-making has grown there, due to its striking interior and fantastic acoustic.
