Community Singing Group

Part Two* of the new things happening in Cumbernauld Old this week is a new Community Singing Group which will start on Wednesday 7th September at 7pm.
This will meet in Cumbernauld Old Parish Church every Wednesday from 7 – 8pm and all are welcome, whether you can sing – or even think you can sing – or not!

No experience necessary, you don’t even need to be able to read music! It promises to be fun, so please come along and see what you think.

There’s a Twitter page @SingCumbernauld which we’ll try to keep updated with all our news. Please give us a wee follow there! And see you on Wednesday evening…

(*If you missed Part One, then that was our Book Group which started on Tuesday 6th September at 2.00pm and which will meet at the Church on the first Tuesday of every month.)

One Enchanted Evening!

Cumbernauld Old Parish Church was delighted to host the Bruadar Duo last week as part of their recent series of concerts and it’s safe to say they held us spell-bound by their music. Many thanks to Kieran (guitar) and Lynn (flute) for their wonderful playing of contemporary music from South America and the UK. It really was an evening to remember!

Here’s a selection of photos from what was a fantastic concert:

A Sparkling Lullaby

Cumbernauld Old Parish Church would like to offer a HUGE vote of thanks to Cumbernauld Musical Theatre Society for their wonderful fund-raising concert ‘Lullaby of Broadway‘ at the Forge Community Centre last Thursday.

It was one of these evenings where we were close to running out of superlatives: fabulous, magnificent, sparkling, fantastic, brilliant, and talented were only some of the words used to express our delight at the superb evening they presented for us.

The evening was a total sell-out and every single person there went home with a song (or two) in their hearts. So, once more, many, many thanks and ‘Haste Ye Back’

 

Burns’ Supper 2015

The Men’s Group Annual Burns’ Supper will be held on Wednesday 21 January in Cumbernauld Bowling Club and everyone is invited to come along to this extremely popular social event in the Church calendar.

Cumbernauld Burns Club will provide their usual, entertaining dialogue, masterminded by Callum Cormack, our Chairman for the evening. Our own Janet Graham and David Boyle will provide excellent musical interludes and Anne Walker will provide her usual wit in defence of the ladies. You will also be served a first class meal! All in all, a great night, not to be missed.

Tickets are now available from any member of the Men’s Group, modestly priced at £7 per head. The time on the evening is 7.00pm for 7.30pm. Hope to see you there.
