Welcome to the Society’s WEB site.
The Society holds its concerts in the magnificent Mellerstain House, near Gordon in the heart of the Scottish Borders, which was built in the 18th century by William & Robert Adam and is the family residence of the 13th Earl and Countess of Haddington. Within the house there is the splendid Music Room, with a beautifully painted ceiling, ornate plasterwork and marvellous oil-paintings. It is here, of course, that our concerts take place.
Each concert is an intimate occasion, with seating for up to 80 guests. The room’s acoustic is excellent – in all respects perfect for concerts of classical chamber music performed by soloists and small ensembles. It is, as many past performers have noted, exactly the kind of setting that Beethoven, Mozart, Schumann, Chopin, Debussy, Poulence and all great chamber music composers would have had in mind when they picked up their pens!
Do please take a few minutes to browse through the Society and Concert Pages and if you find programmes of music which excites you, then please contact the relevant Society Officials who will be very pleased to extend a warm welcome to you.
