Holy Week Festival Q+A: Elizabeth Ajao, The Choir of Royal Holloway

2 March 2020

What inspired the programme you’re bringing to the Holy Week Festival? Tell us a bit about the music and what we should listen out for. Our concert consists entirely of various settings of the famous Easter text Crucifixus pro nobis. Whilst some interpretations we will present date back to the early 1700s, we will be performing… continued

Guest blog: Chris Watson

5 February 2020

I’m sitting in a well-known-yet-as-usual-slightly-disappointing coffee chain in Boston, reminiscing about the wonderful week I spent with my Tenebrae friends last month. It’s been three years since I left Europe and headed down-under to take up the post of Director of Music at Trinity College, Melbourne, and it was a real treat to be invited… continued

Australia tour success

4 February 2020

We had a wonderful time away in Australia at the end of January when we performed one concert in Melbourne and two in Sydney, making our debut there as part of the Sydney Festival. Bachtrack gave our final concert 5 stars, and there have been a whole host of excellent reviews for all the concerts:… continued

USA Tour 2019

Meet me in St Louis

18 November 2019

We’ve made it to day 8 and concert 6 of our USA tour and we have officially passed the halfway point. St. Louis was the first place on this tour that I was returning to after coming in March 2018 and I had mixed memories of the place. On one hand I remembered the fantastic… continued

USA Tour 2019

The American Way

17 November 2019

Day 5 and, for most, the first and last rest day of the tour. Six plucky Tenebrae members (former and current Associate Artists + Jimmy) would give a workshop at the University of Maryland in the afternoon but more on that later! First came the chance to catch up on sleep – this was the… continued

USA Tour 2019

Malvin McLorinan

15 November 2019

By the time we arrived in Maryland, we’d clocked up eighteen hours of coach travel. This has been a really civilised way to start the tour. It’s nice not to be rushing around airports, and to be able to look out of the window and see a bit of the country as we travel. The… continued

USA Tour 2019

From one Carolina to another

13 November 2019

Day 4 of our tour across the states started earlier for some than others, with a couple of people heading out for an early run across Charleston’s beautiful coast. Luckily for me, the jet lag hasn’t hit too badly, so I engaged in no such worthy productiveness and slept until the rudeness of my alarm… continued

USA Tour 2019

Let’s do the Charleston!

12 November 2019

Welcome to the second blog of this tour, coming to you from the coach somewhere between Charleston SC and Durham NC. It’s currently day 4 of my first tour to the US with Tenebrae and so far so good! Yesterday we were in the beautiful Charleston with gorgeous sunny weather and great food. We arrived… continued

USA Tour 2019

It’s Cauliflower

11 November 2019

Welcome to the first blog of Tenebrae’s current tour of the USA. This tour’s a mammoth one as we undertake 10 concerts in 10 different states in 13 days, and you’ll get to read all about it thanks to these blogs, written by members of the choir, carefully handpicked by management. I like to think… continued

Tenebrae return to Australia!

We’re absolutely thrilled to announce our return to Australia in January 2020, where we’ll be performing in Melbourne and Sydney. In Melbourne and Sydney we perform our award-winning interpretation of Tomás Luis de Victoria’s Requiem Mass of 1605. This luminous masterpiece has a timeless resonance that speaks to hearers across four centuries. This is performed alongside… continued

5* Review from The Times

23 July 2019

On Monday 15th July, we performed our signature Russian Treasures programme to a packed St. Bartholomew-the-Great. The Times reviewed it and have this to say: “The night was launched by Rachmaninov selections, couched in long phrases and the creamiest of harmonies, perfect for spotlighting Tenebrae’s smooth velvet tone singing legato, the voice parts immaculately blended…. continued
