  • Date lodged: Friday, 10 May 2024
  • Motion reference: S6M-13002

That the Parliament congratulates the Helensburgh Dorian Choir, Helensburgh’s oldest choir, on its 75th anniversary; notes that it was set up in 1949 by James MacTaggart; understands that the choir will hold an anniversary concert celebrating the wonderful world and providing some optimism during difficult times; commends the choir's musical director, Sian Winstanley, who it believes has strengthened the choir since joining in 2017; understands that the choir has never been so popular; wishes the choir the best of luck for the future, and encourages people to attend the concert on 3 May 2024 that will see Hermitage Primary School join it in renditions of popular songs, such as Edelweiss and Dancing in the Street.
