We look for the unknown and the unsung. Composers such as Robert White, Jean Mouton and Jean L'Heritier are amongst our repertoire. In addition we champion the music from current composers such a Miskinis, Part and Dubra. In addition we love singing Tallis, Byrd and Tomkins, Tye, Victoria, Guerrero and Padilla etc! We are based in Milton Keynes and have a reputation as being among the very best in the region. We are available for concerts and weddings, plus services in cathedrals and churches. We have provided the services at key UK cathedrals including Westminster Abbey, Salisbury, Hereford and Coventry to name a few.  less

Its 30 singers represent each and every possible walk of life. Good, solid, serious musical work, hand in hand with a particularly warm, family-like atmosphere, have made every “Jean’s” rehearsal and performance something very special indeed. Our popularity is due in equal measure to the high quality of our performances and to our repertoire,“Love Around the World”, a wonderful songbook comprised of original five-part arrangements (all arranged by Jeanne Rabin herself) of the world’s most beloved love songs of all time – both in Hebrew and English, with a sprinkling of other languages as well.  less

In the 16th century, this Jewish Italian composer and violinist, fellow-student and collaborator of Claudio Monteverdi, wrote some thirty liturgical pieces for three to eight mixed voices. They fell into oblivion. In 1870, in Paris, Samuel Naumbourg, helped by the young Vincent d'Indy, brought them together in a volume and made them partially adopted by some synagogues. "Shir Lama'alot" for five voices is a composition taken from Rossi's book "Hashirim Asher Lishlomo", printed in Venice in 1623. read more - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salamone_Rossi The Jerusalem Oratorio Chamber Choir conducted by Ronen Borshevsky.

Er weidet mich auf grüner Aue und führet mich zum frischen Wasser. (He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me the quiet waters by.) Er erquicket meine Seele; (My soul he doth restore again) er führet mich auf rechter Straße um seines Namens willen. (and me to walk doth make in the paths of righteousness, even for his own Name's sake.) Und ob ich schon wanderte im finstern Tal, fürchte ich kein Unglück; (Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale, yet will I fear no ill) denn du bist bei mir, dein Stecken und dein Stab trösten mich. (For Thou art with me; and thy rod and staff my comfort still.) Du bereitest vor mir einen Tisch im Angesicht meiner Feinde....  less
