Location: Edinburgh Star rating: *** Well, the Edinburgh Singers in their performance of Bach's B minor Mass on Sunday were not quite the Dunedin Consort. With more than 60 voices, this was never going to be Bach in the modern manner, with every singer a soloist. Even with Dominic Peckham as a notably brisk conductor, they looked like an old-fashioned cathedral choir and the promise of Reno Troilus as counter-tenor was unfulfilled, though his replacement, Laura Kelly, sang admirably, as did the soprano Catharine Rogers during a break in the RSAMD's production of Poulenc's Dialogues des Carmelites in Glasgow.
