Last Thursday, an audience gathered at St Columba’s Episcopal Church (affectionately known locally as The Tin Tabernacle) in Brora to enjoy a selection of music and songs performed by talented local musicians. Following on from a very successful Midsummer Concert and a well attended art exhibition, the folk at St Columba’s decided to hold a concert in late September with an Autumn Theme. The concert was compered by Alistair risk and performers included harpist Jennifer Port, Monica Maclean’s Gold Star Band, and a number of singers, including the priest at St Columba’s, Canon Simon Scott. The programme was wide and varied, ranging from traditional Scottish tunes to sixteenth century madrigals and finished with the ever popular community sing-a-long. Entry was free, but voluntary donations totalling £425 were collected in aid of CLAN Cancer Support charity. For some audience members this was the first time they had been in the Tin Tabernacle and they appreciated the warm, friendly and intimate surroundings. St Columba’s will hold their next concert at 4pm on Sunday 4th January 2026 – the theme will be Christmas and The New Year! Put it in your diary now!
