Season’s greetings and a big thank you to musicians, singers, helpers and, of course, audience for making our Christmas Concert such a success. We raised a considerable amount for Barts Cancer Unit and had an enjoyable evening ahead of the festive season.

Choir rehearsals restart at 7 pm on Friday 10th January in Barts-the-Less Church, in the grounds of Barts Hospital. And we are looking forward to:

  • Our ‘Come & Sing’ instant concert of Brahms Requiem in German on Saturday 22nd February at 2pm.
  • And we will be one of the choirs performing the new composition of ‘A Season to Sing’ by Joanna Forbes L’Estrange, a choral re-imagining of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, on Monday 14th April at 7.30 pm.
  • Then in May, there will be an opera performance of Il Trovatore on Saturday 10th May at 2pm.

If you enjoy singing and would like to take part in these events, please send us a message via our Contact Us page.

An evening with Dvorak & Cherubini

Join us for an evening in the company of Dvorak’s Cello Concerto that tells of unrequited love, followed by Cherubini’s Requiem in C Minor, singled out for praise by Beethoven, Schumann and Brahms some two hundred years prior.

Our concerts are currently hosted at ‘The Musicians’ Church’ – Holy Sepulchre Church, Holborn Viaduct – opposite the Old Bailey, around the corner from Barts Hospital.

All ticket profits are donated to Barts Cancer Unit towards that something extra for patients and staff. It would be great to have your company too.
