Tickets to see Scottish-grown chamber orchestra Ludus Baroque at Canongate Kirk are now bought by many as a matter of ritual, so strong is the group’s popularity and reputation for bringing wonderful music to the famed 17th century church. It’s easy to see why. Ludus Baroque’s orchestral and choral work is of a magnificent standard and anyone who has the pleasure of seeing them perform will not be disappointed.

After a spine-tingling solo from countertenor Tim Mead, a gentleman sat a few rows away proclaimed, ‘Christ, that was beautiful. I was taken away to another place.’ It was a sentiment shared by the entire audience: Ludus Baroque’s performance of Handel’s often-overlooked oratorio ‘The Triumph of Time and Truth’ is stunningly beautiful and mesmerising. It only continues to reinforce the high esteem in which director Richard Neville-Towle’s collective are held.

Mead was a particularly standout performer but that is not to say that his fellow singers were weak or below par. The quintet of soloists made for a breathtaking central core and each one of them brought a drama and passion to their performance that, as the gentleman described, was able to transport us to another place.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
