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

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

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

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

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

We’re thrilled that the wonderful composer Joanna Marsh is writing a new commission for us, to be premiered at Wigmore Hall on 1 December 2019. The new piece, In Winter’s House, is for male voices only and is written to sit alongside Britten’s Ceremony of Carols in its SSA arrangement. We caught up with her… continued

Since I last wrote the autumn has set in and the leaves are falling. The transition from summer has gone by in something of a blur as Tenebrae enjoyed its busiest September since we began performing nearly 20 years ago. In August we had tremendous fun performing at the BBC Proms, making our debut at… continued

A flagship programme to develop the most talented young-professional choral singers in the UK. Having admired Tenebrae for a long time, it has been a real privilege to sing and work with such a talented group of musicians. They have been amazingly supportive and welcoming colleagues. – Elisabeth Paul (Tenebrae Associate Artist 2016-9) Please Donate… continued

We’re very excited to announce that Tenebrae will be returning to the United States for an extensive tour in November 2019. We will be visiting the University of Georgia in Athens, GA; Charleston; Duke University in Durham, NC; University of Maryland, MD; Chicago; St Louis; Dallas; Brigham Young University, UT; Los Angeles and Ashland, OR…. continued

A lively time for us this last June and July before we hit a full August leading into our busiest autumn since the choir started nearly 20 years ago. We had another wonderful trip to Suffolk for the Aldeburgh Festival at the start of June. We’ve been to this part of the world quite a… continued

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

This summer sees my final few months as an Associate Artist with Tenebrae, and what an amazing journey it’s been! I’m so grateful to Nigel and his brilliant team for welcoming me on board, particular thanks go to Helen Daniels, Jessy Croghan, Henry Southern, Charlotte Nohavicka, Esther Poole and Alex Davies whose tireless work over… continued
