Title
Rudsambee company of singers
Description
We roam the world (and the library) for songs which appeal to us: mediaeval motets, renaissance songs from Scotland and elsewhere, and wonderful pieces from Africa, Asia, the Americas and all corners of Europe from Bosnia to Finland. Original settings of Scots and English poetry are a feature of our repertoire. We also make our own settings of folk songs and other music from Britain and around the world. It's available to see, hear and buy if you would like to share it.
The choir is led by Frances Cockburn. Now in our twelfth year, we number 19 people as diverse as the music we sing.
Rudsambee has performed at two Royal Gala Dinners attended by the Princess Royal in the Great Hall of Edinburgh Castle and in the Hub (one of Edinburgh's major Festival venues).
