So that we can provide music scores and refreshments please contact either Euan McKay, GSO euansmckay@btinternet.com  or Tom White, LSO on 39tomwhite@gmail.com  to advise how many will be attending from your church, with their names, and whether they sing Soprano, Alto , Tenor or Bass.  Please contact Tom or Euan ASAP.

Cathcart Old is a fascinating and beautiful building.   It is the second building of the congregation,  to an original design 1923 by Clifford & Lunan, but completed 1928 by Watson, Salmon & Gray. The size is enhanced by the low porch and range of vestries. South transept contains a display of the church’s history over 800 years; the north transept was converted in 1962 to the McKellar Memorial Chapel. Tapestry of The Last Supper by Charles Marshall, stained glass by James Crombie. Organ by John R Miller 1890, restored and converted to electro-mechanical action 1994.

About us Founded in 1962 we’ve been serving Lanarkshire’s Church Musicians for almost 50 years. We exist to promote organ and church music – whatever form that may take! Our membership is small with only 20 or so members, but we represent a wide spectrum of ages and interests. Our aim is to encourage those with an interest in Church music and music in general – especially the young, promote music activities in relation to the organ and build a social network of organists in Lanarkshire, to adapt to the changing needs of organists and musicians and church music in general.
