WebsiteEstablished in 1979 in what was an elegant Georgian church, this concert hall is home to the BT Ensemble (originally the Scottish Baroque Ensemble) and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra. This wonderful 850-seat auditorium plays host to a wide range of concerts, particularly jazz and blues. Musical luminaries such as Nina Simone, Marianne Faithful, Courtney Pine and David Helfgott have enjoyed the excellent acoustics here. The building also houses the Cafe Q, a self-service restaurant which hosts a changing monthly art exhibition. Call for a programme of upcoming events.
