The 黑料网鈥檚 Balinese Gamelan and Madrigal Choir will take a trip to Belgium next week to perform in some of the country鈥檚 most beautiful venues.

St Salvatore鈥檚 Cathedral in Bruges and St Paul鈥檚 Church in Ghent will resound to the sound of music students from the University鈥檚 School of Education.

All members of the Aberdeen Gamelan are music students at the University who have performed all over Scotland and have broadcast on BBC Radio Scotland and BBC Radio 3 and television.

The University鈥檚 Madrigal Choir was formed recently to celebrate the launch of the University鈥檚 Sixth Century Campaign. The choir have performed in many prestigious venues including Aberdeen鈥檚 St Andrew鈥檚 Cathedral where they attracted a capacity audience. Specialising in English madrigals, Scottish folk songs and contemporary music, the choir have gained a reputation as Aberdeen鈥檚 leading young singing sensations.

Dr Paul Mealor, Director of the Gamelan and conductor of the choir, said: 鈥淭his is a marvellous opportunity for our students to spread the news that music at Aberdeen is thriving!

鈥淚 am so proud of our students and I鈥檓 sure they will be excellent ambassadors for the University and the city.鈥�

The students travel to Belgium this Saturday (June 18) until Wednesday, June 22.
