Huge musical combo

- Wallace Galbraith

Take the energetic, rhythmic playing of 100 violins, cellos and basses, the strident, sonorous sounds of 40 brass instrument­s, add a bagpiper and the sweet, youthful voices of two primary school choirs and you have the wonderful musical combinatio­n that is Two’s Company.

The Ayrshire Fiddle Orchestra, The Dalmelling­ton Band and the choirs of Heathfield and Glenburn primary schools take to Ayr Town Hall stage on Saturday, November 4 to bring their annual musical extravagan­za to life.

The exciting news that the Ayrshire Fiddle Orchestra has been invited to take part in next year’s New York Tartan Week in April as well as a journey to Spain to join in a string festival will add extra enthusiasm to the players’ bows while the ongoing success of the Dalmelling­ton Band at various national competitio­ns makes them one of Scotland’s top brass bands.

Tickets for the concert are available from the Gaiety box office on 01292 288235.
