We perform West Gallery Music, the hymns and psalmody heard in parish churches and nonconformist chapels during the Georgian period, from about 1700-1850. It is often vigorous, poignant, and very enjoyable to sing.
We give concerts and sing for church services. You will find
details of our upcoming events
here.
Come and hear us at our next event, which is shown below.
If you are potentially interested in singing or playing with us, visit our next rehearsal (no charge for first time) on
Wednesday 6th March at St Michael Paternoster Royal, near Cannon Street Station in London.
We welcome new singers and players of any acoustic orchestral or
folk instrument !
No audition required. You will need to be able to read the (fairly
simple) music. Take a look at some of our pieces that you can
download from our
