Classical Music in St Andrews, Fife
Chamber Music Concerts
The St Andrews Music Club, founded in 1952, each year invites professional musicians to St Andrews in a series of concerts of chamber music. These concerts are open to all - members and non-members alike.
The Club gratefully acknowledges support from Enterprise Music Scotland and financial guarantees from Fife Council.
The Venue
Concerts normally take place in the fine auditorium of St Leonard's Music School [entrance off the Pends]. This has an excellent accoustic, comfortable seats and an intimate atmosphere, ideal for chamber music. Click here for map. However, two of the concerts in the 2009/2010 programme will take place in a different location: the November concert will take place in the Younger Hall, North Street and the March concert in St Salvator’s Chapel, also in North Street.
