We are a group of Edinburgh singers who sing the wonderful traditional harmony songs from the Republic of Georgia. The group is open to everyone, with no particular musical background necessary except for a willingness to explore singing harmonies with others. All songs are taught by ear.
The group is led usually by two facilitators from a small pool of people who have been learning Georgian songs within two Edinburgh based groups who love to sing Georgian songs. The facilitators have been inspired by David Tugwell as well as the expert teacher of Georgian singing Frank Kane. The group aspires to follow Frank Kane’s approach of focussing on vibration in the body as the path to finding the authentic voice within ourselves and to connecting with other singers.

About Donations:
Participation in our community-led events is on a voluntary ‘by donation’ basis. This means that nobody is expected to make a payment if they cannot afford to do so. However any donations received will be shared between the Centre and the facilitator, helping to make the events’ programme sustainable as well as to provide some reciprocity towards community facilitators’ time and skills offered.
Where a “suggested donation” is listed, this is just an indication of what the event might cost if it was ticketed – it is fine to donate less (or nothing at all). Yet if you can afford to and find value in the Salisbury Centre’s offerings , please consider ‘paying it forward’ by donating a bit extra helping to keep it possible for everyone to take part, whatever their circumstances.
