🏴 🇺🇸 🎶 the finale moments of ‘Across the Water’ by Scott Gendel performed by Madison Youth Choirs in Holy Trinity, St Andrews ••• Originally commissioned in honor of MYC’s summer 2016 visit to the Aberdeen International Youth Festival, we returned to this work in anticipation of 85 MYC singers visiting our beloved Scotland again this summer. The work combines the haunting “The Water is Wide” with an upbeat and rhythmic waulking song. Waulking songs are traditional Gaelic melodies that were sung by women while waulking cloth–rhythmically beating newly woven tweed against a hard surface to soften it.••• #culturalexchange #music #choir #singing #standrews #tour #exchange #culture #nowsing #madison #scotland

St Salvator’s Chapel Choir is the flagship choir of the University of St Andrews, Scotland. A mixed voice ensemble of around 30 students, its history extends back to the founding of the University in the early fifteenth century, when students were obliged to sing in the University’s chapel. These choristers were referred to as the ‘Choristi Sanctiandree’.
Today, under the direction of Claire Innes-Hopkins, the choir performs a broad repertoire spanning the six centuries of the University’s history. In addition to three sung services per week and extensive ceremonial duties, the choir enjoys a busy schedule of concerts, international tours and broadcasts on radio and TV, as well as appearances at international festivals including, most recently, the Thüringer Bachwochen (Germany)

Mary Ann Kennedy & Abbey Arkotxa
Pupil of Fin Moore and organiser of Far North Retreats in Cape Wrath, Abbey Arkotxa came across Loch Voil by boat to meet Mary Ann Kennedy/ Màiri Anna NicUalraig ⛵ who sang a port-à-beul accompanied by Abbey’s wonderful smallpipes. An unexpected meet and beautiful bonus as #SAVTriall continues 👣
As part of her pilgrimage, Mary Ann Kennedy/ Màiri Anna NicUalraig reaches the old railway viaduct in Glen Ogle. Having seen it from afar for so many years, she finally makes the long-awaited crossing. What a stunning scene! #SAVTriall
SAV Triall - Mull Gaelic Choir
What a privilege for Mary Ann Kennedy/ Màiri Anna NicUalraig to join Còisir Ghàidhlig an Eilein Mhuilich - Isle of Mull Gaelic Choir as they returned to singing once again. 🎶
An uplifting and emotional stage of #SAVTriall. ❤️ Don't they sound wonderful? ☺️
