MUSIC at St MARY's
St Mary's Church Choir
Led by Graeme Stevenson, the choir is a friendly mix of singers who lead the hymns during worship and sing two to three anthems each Sunday. COVID-19 currently prevents us from singing, but we are doing "virtual choir" recordings to be played to our congregation each Sunday. A list of our recent anthems is available here
University of Dundee Choral Scholars
These scholarships are jointly supported by the University of Dundee and St.Mary's, and include a bursary plus ten hours of free singing lessons over the academic year.
The scholars attend at least one of the University ensembles and sing in St. Mary's choir.
Discovery Bach Cantata Project
St Mary's is also home to the Discovery Bach Cantata Project. Affiliated to the University of Dundee, the Discovery Bach Cantata Project gave its first concert in May 2019 in the church. Each month the group performs a Bach cantata and a work by a contemporary of JSB. Separating the two major works is normally a short organ piece.
Visiting Performers
St Mary's has been delighted to recently welcome visiting performers, including Dundee Choral Union, East Fife Male Voice Choir and The Edinburgh Quartet. Groups interested in using St Mary's as a performance venue are welcome.
