Our repertoire, sung in up to eight parts, ranges from the most sublime choral music of all time to popular light favourites. We also ‘premiere’ works by today’s talented new composers and arrangers. Musically, individual members can boast… singing in St Mark’s, Venice; the Duomo, Florence; the Salzburg Festival; performing a vocal recital on a stairlift; recording jingles for local radio and being the first girl chorister to sing for a service in St Paul’s Cathedral, London.  less
