There’s no time to lose at the moment, so my apologies as I’ll have to keep this one brief! I had a fabulous few days at Westminster Choir College in New Jersey working with their numerous choirs and directors on a huge range of repertoire. The best was saved ’til last when I had the… continued

Gosh, another blog from me? Time passes so fast! So, news from the Tenebrae Office just in: we have received funding from the PRS for Music Foundation, Arts Council England and the Santander Foundation in order to support our fifteenth-anniversary tour featuring Joby Talbot’s astonishing work, Path of Miracles! We are so lucky to have Henry Southern… continued

Tenebrae is thrilled to be working with London Youth Choir as one of its Choral Development Partners in the 2016-17 season. We caught up with Esther Jones, Acting Artistic Director of London Youth Choir to hear more about the work of this fantastic organisation. Tell us a little bit about yourself and your background. I… continued

Well it’s back to earth with a bump after several weeks away with the family and Tenebrae’s mascot, Monty, I’m now back to editing recordings, programming, and of course spending lots of time with Henry and Helen in the Office! Well, I’m supposed to be…. Actually I had to sneak away from my family holiday… continued

I’m writing this blog as I sit in glorious Devon where I’m spending some much-needed quality family time.  Last term was busy not just for Tenebrae but for my children too! The usual endless taxiing about getting them to their various sports clubs – their favourite being cricket – alongside their own birthday parties and,… continued

What a fabulous surprise on Saturday morning to have a text from a dear old friend congratulating me on ‘Gracie doing you proud on Radio 3 just now…’. I had no idea what he was talking about and so enquired as to what he was referring to – or words to that effect! It turns… continued

It’s been a busy but incredibly rewarding month for us, with the usual amount of varying repertoire and concert venues. First of all we spent an intense few days recording some wonderful music by Polish composer Pawel Lukaszewski in St Augustine’s, Kilburn. It was a real pleasure to have Pawel with us to help give… continued

This month got off to the most wonderful start with a concert in one of England’s most beautiful Cathedrals, Wells. A packed Nave meant the choir had to begin the concert standing right against the West Door but the acoustic is such that we became instantly aware that our sound was pinging down the Cathedral… continued

It’s been odd this Easter to not be involved in any Church services for the first time in 6 years. I must say I’ve missed it, especially the amazing atmosphere that used to be a regular feature of services at St Bartholomew the Great. There are, however, some major benefits and the best of all… continued

In advance of our upcoming concert On Eagles Wings, we caught up with Richard Frostick, director of our choral development partners, The Music Centres, who will be performing with us on Thursday evening. Tell us a little bit about yourself and your background. I was a very keen boy treble and sang all the time in church… continued

So, a normally quiet time of the year has ended up being as busy as any other: no rest for the wicked! We had a fabulous team of singers performing in our concert at Cadogan Hall for our ‘Tour de force’ French programme which includes Poulenc’s Figure Humaine. In fact, there’s plenty of other really… continued

A great start to 2016 appearing at the fab London A Cappella Festival at Kings Place curated by The Swingle Singers. They’re clearly doing great things there in developing a huge and varied interest in singing of all manner of vocal ensembles. We were honoured to be opening the festival and it was a hugely… continued
