Cadenza at the Fringe

Edinburgh 2026

Cadenza is one of Edinburgh's finest amateur choirs and their annual Fringe concert is always an audience favourite. This year, they perform Rachmaninoff's All-Night Vigil (popularly known as the Vespers), one of the most iconic and moving works in the choral repertoire, alongside Brahms’ beautiful Alto Rhapsody – rarely heard in concert – and Boulanger's Vieille Prière Bouddhique. Conducted by Timothy Coleman, with international opera soloist Iain Milne (tenor), and accompanied by Morley Whitehead (piano), this is a performance not to be missed.

This is an archived listing from the 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Cadenza at the Fringe is by Cadenza, listed under Music in the Fringe programme. It plays at Greyfriars Kirk, Greyfriars Place, EH1 2QQ, 29 August.

The show runs 105 minutes and is suitable for ages 8+. Tickets are £18.
