Invitation To Our Autumn Concert

November 18th 2021

Glenalmond College extends a very warm invitation to you to join us on November 28th at 7.30pm for our Autumn Concert.

This year’s concert will be online as unfortunately, due to restrictions, it is not yet possible to welcome our parents and guests into school to join us for events.

Our concert will feature a fabulous line-up of our pupil musicians who are delighted to collectively bring you an evening of autumnal entertainment.

We will be screening the concert via Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube and Twitter. Please make a note in your diaries so you don't miss our concert this year.

Our Director of Music, Tim Ridley, is currently on leave recovering from surgery and we wish him a speedy recovery. Our thanks to our Music Department team of Mrs Leggatt and Mr Elrick, who have worked hard to prepare pupils for the concert.
