Carols and kilts

THE seventh annual productions of Carols and Kilts with the Durban Caledonian Society Pipe Band and Friends will be at the Durban Light Infantry Hall, 1 DLI Avenue, inside the Greyville Racecourse, on Sunday, 1 December from 2pm to 4pm.

Enjoy a medley of well-known Christmas carols arranged for the highland bagpipe with an array of talented supporting vocalists and maestros on electric, acoustic and bass guitar, keyboard, saxophone, penny-whistle, drum-kit, djembe and cowbell and well-known bagpipe favourites such as The Flower of Scotland and Auld Lang Syne.

There will be a few contemporary sets requiring fancy finger-work and dexterous drumming, displays of skill and agility in both Irish- and Highland-dancing sets and the traditional rendition of the poet Robert Burns’ Address to a Haggis, including a real haggis which will be served for free during intermission.
