Repertoire
The Bubblyjock Collective perform only works by Scottish/Scottish-based composers, in order to highlight the breadth and variety of classical/contemporary music coming out of the country.
Our programmes are usually a mix of:
-
Art-song
-
Solo and Chamber music arranged for the collective
-
New commissions for the ensemble
We are continually preparing new repertoire. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss programming.
