In this, our 70th anniversary year, Aberdeen Bach Choir is delighted to bring you the first of two very special concerts in St Machar's Cathedral. On Saturday 25th April we will perform an indulgent selection of favourite and well known choral works in celebration of our 70 years.

We will be accompanied on this auspicious occasion by Joseph Beech, Sub-Organist at Durham Cathedral. Joseph is the principal accompanist to Durham Cathedral Choir, playing the organ for daily services in addition to the choir's schedule of broadcasts, concerts, recordings and tours. He also assists the Master of the Choristers in his work conducting the choir, and recruiting and training the choristers.
