The Glasgow Barons

Set up by conductor and Govan resident, Paul MacAlindin, our goal is for everyone to enjoy making and listening to live music in Govan. We do this with concerts, community and school music projects in Govan. We love celebrating Govan's rich heritage and folklore, but most of all, our local Govanites, whose warmth, diversity and resilience influence everything we do. We are a flexible, innovative 21st century orchestral ensemble adapting to the needs of local communities and spaces. Govan is an area of deep multiple deprivation. We work alongside other agencies in Govan and Glasgow to help everyone rebuild hope, resilience and creative choices for our future together.
