Our next concert
We are delighted to invite you to our next concert on Saturday July 4th at St James Church, Muswell Hill.
Our triple bill of works inspired by biblical characters will take us on a rollercoaster journey through adversity, regret and celebration.
Overture in C by Fanny Hensel (née Mendelssohn) and her short cantata Hiob, taking text from the book of Job, highlight the talents of this neglected composer while Schubert’s celebratory cantata Mirjams Siegesgesang tells the dramatic story of the parting of the Red Sea.
Our centrepiece is Davide penitente in which Mozart sets a series of penitential psalms by David to the evocative music of his unfinished C-minor Mass.
The Meridian Sinfonia will accompany us and we are joined by a remarkable quartet of soloists in Eleanor Sanderson-Nash, Eleanor Pennell-Briggs, Mark Milhofer and Henry George Page, all under the baton of our Musical Director Murray Hipkin.
Please join us for an evening of dramatic choral storytelling!

We are very grateful to our existing sponsors, Nimrod Capital and Goodman Jones.
Running a choir these days is extremely expensive. We employ a Musical Director and an accompanist, as well as a vocal coach who helps to improve our singing technique; we rent a rehearsal space; we hire venues, soloists and orchestral players for concerts. Members’ subscriptions and ticket sales are not enough to maintain our high musical standards and support our work. Please consider supporting us!
