Programme Note
This spring, Collegium Musicum of London Chamber Choir celebrates our country’s rich and diverse heritage of song. With an eclectic programme of tunes, ranging from Byrd to The Beatles, by way of Taverner, Purcell, Elgar, Vaughan Williams, Britten, Rutter and others, the choir takes a journey through the varied landscape of English song – with a few surprises along the way.
Join Collegium Musicum in the choir’s home – Christopher Wren’s historic and elegant St James Garlickhythe in the City of London – for a fun and wide-ranging midweek a cappella concert.
