Come and join us!

We are taking a well earned rest over the summer, with rehearsals resuming on 28th August 2024.

A new era for the Choir began from September 2023 as we bid a fond farewell to Tiffany Vong, our MD since 2016.  However, we were delighted to promote Maciej Granat from accompanist to Musical Director, and introduce Isobel Burnie, our new but highly experienced Accompanist. 

The dynamics and relationships are working well, and we are enjoying the direction we are heading in.

See our Join Us page for more information about rehearsals.

More information about Cunninghame Choir below.

Welcome! Cunninghame Choir is a friendly and enthusiastic non-audition amateur adult choir based in Beith, North Ayrshire in the West of Scotland. Established in 1978, we are a mixed-voice (4 parts) choir with willingness and enthusiasm. We don't take ourselves too seriously, but do reap the rewards for our efforts. Our musical repertoire is wide and varied and is not limited to classic and sacred works. Recent themes have included Scottish Folk, European, Gospel, Blues as well as classical choral spanning the centuries to new works and commissions. We look forward to learning new and interesting music, developing as a choir and widening our repertoire under the direction of our new Musical Director, Maciej Granat, with assistance from talented accompanist, Isobel Burnie. 

Our Spring 2019 concert, The First Toll, celebrated 40 years of singing and performing together, and took its title from a new and dramatic commission from our very talented composer/accompanist, Maciej Granat. This work set music to a poem by local character, Andrew Aitken, musing on hearing Beith’s Parish Church bell toll for the first time in 1810. A recording of this performance can be viewed on our Concerts and Repertoire page. This concert also featured a previous Cunninghame Choir World Premiere from renowned Scottish composer, Sir James MacMillan, alongside the elegant Mass in G by Franz Schubert.
