Proud to see @NYCOS_PBC@NYCOS_ED names on the @NYCOScotland Chamber choir list, and really looking forward to hearing them sing this evening here in Oban ❤️
A thread, as there are not enough words to describe my feelings this evening after saying goodbye to my @NYCOS_ED gents for the final time. Saying goodbye to you all, parents and my incredible colleagues was incredibly difficult for me.
Just before we start driving again, had the best chat with @daveyplayz87 about his single ‘Through The Barricades’ and upcoming album. @NYCOS_ED gents, David and I met singing in @NYCOScotland. So inspiring to hear about his journey.

Excited @NYCOS_ED gents this evening getting their Kazoos for ‘Barbershop Blues’ - one of our all time favourite pieces!
The first time I encountered this song was ‘way back when’ @barrchristopher, @daveyplayz87 and I performed it as part of a @NYCOScotland informal concert!
Well done, gents, for a fantastic concert yesterday evening. You made the whole team so proud. It heartened me to not only see our numbers grow, but also the really fantastic turnout in the audience.
Have a lovely, and well deserved winter break.
📣 Calling Tenor and Baritone voices aged 17 to 21! Are you a young singer who would love the opportunity of a unique and practical introduction to the world of opera and the chance to develop your talent?

Well done boys! Gold medals each for singing @NationalMod! Huge thanks to @DFScotlandTeach and @NYCOS_ED for fantastic tuition and encouragement, keeping these boys and many others singing!
We said farewell to Cyro, one of our fantastic musicianship team, who is heading to Czech Republic to study for the rest of this year. We can’t wait to see you back, and are so grateful for everything you have done to support our gents.
Welcome to our 17 new members that came along tonight. We are so delighted to have you with us and can’t wait to share your incredible voices with everyone!
We loved to see how glad our gents were to see each other. These three have been friends for years since meeting in @NYCOS_ED and their reunion sure gave us a smile!
Gents & staff from NYCOS_ED, I hope that you have the best of times. There’s no experience that you will have that can match a NYCOS residential - not just for the friendships, but for the long lasting skills for life that you will develop.
P.S. remember to come back to us after!
You were incredible! We would love to welcome any of your children who are interested and love singing to sing with us; and if not us, any of the @NYCOScotland choirs ❤️❤️
Wow - 20 new boys arrived at today’s #ComeAndSing. We can’t wait to welcome you into our choir in the new term. You were all AMAZING!
Don’t worry if you missed the session today - we will post out our term dates soon and you can come along.
Have a lovely holiday
Great to hear Ruairidh has enjoyed @NYCOS_ED
