Friends of Wighton latest

With thanks to Sheena Wellington, an update from Friends of Wighton :

Friends of Wighton are delighted that the renowned Scottish traditional singer Maureen Jelks will give the Lunchtime Recital on Wednesday 5th May.

Dundee born Maureen is no stranger to the Wighton, as she takes the Tuesday afternoon song class, but the opportunity to hear “the singer’s singer” in concert is not to be missed. Maureen has appeared at clubs, concerts and festivals, on radio and television, across the British Isles and the United States enchanting audiences with her sense of humour, wide ranging repertoire and, above all, “ that voice, so beautiful and clear” – Barbara Dickson.

The recital is from 1.15 – 1.45pm in the Wighton Heritage Centre, Local Studies Department, Central Library, Dundee. Admission is free and there is a retiring collection in support of the Friends Outreach and Education programme.
