Coffee Cadenzas is a community concert series, born in West Kilbride at the Barony Centre (Craft Town Scotland).
Coffee Cadenzas invites musicians from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland to share their music with the local community surrounded by artwork and of course...a cup of coffee. Our aim is to provide accessibility to a variety of genres of music, support cultural hubs in the community and provide professional opportunity for emerging artists.
Join us this November for our Autumn Concert Series at the Barony Centre West Kilbride. Starting at 10:30am, enjoy a variety of music (including classical, jazz and folk), all wrapping up before lunchtime. Our morning concerts are always free, however any support for our future through a donation would be greatly appreciated.
