London Gallery Quire

About Us

We perform West Gallery Music, the hymns and psalmody heard in parish churches and nonconformist chapels during the Georgian period, from about 1722-1850. It is often vigorous, poignant, and very enjoyable to sing.
Many of the pieces are a lot livlier than later Victorian hymnody, and there is a wonderful repertoire of Christmas carols.

If you like singing in harmony or play an instrument you wil be very welcome: we are a friendly group and always delighted to welcome someone coming for a taster session to see what it is all about.
There will be no charge for that, and if you decide to join our termly membership is a lot lower than most choirs.

You can review our full repertoire and download PDFs of any piece, which you can copy freely for your choir, here.
