The Kilbarchan Singers is a chamber choir that rehearses and performs two annual concerts in our village. We have performed in other locations in Scotland and abroad. Our objectives are to promote and develop the appreciation of various genres of music. As well as encouraging our local junior choir, for a number of years we have benefitted from a grant from Renfrewshire Council enabling us to enlist the help of music scholars. Our present Musical Director was formerly one of these music scholars. It has been a privilege to witness his growth over the years and know that Kilbarchan Singers has played a small part in his development. We continue to support local charities by performing concerts in their premises. A poignant moment last year was singing at a care home where one of the residents was a former member of the choir. He still sings and leads singing at the care home on occasions – proof of how beneficial singing can be over an entire lifetime.

Objectives: (a) The organisation, promotion and presentation of public concerts and recitals (b) The making and distribution of recordings of choral music (c) Collaboration with other bodies having similar objects
