COME & SING 'Positive, as Sound'

English Chamber Choir is one of the UK’s leading and busiest vocal ensembles. ​Recent highlights include the Royal Albert Hall, London Palladium (with Rick Wakeman), Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey and many concerts at St Martin-in-the-Fields and abroad.

ECC is conducted by highly-acclaimed Artistic Director and composer, Rufus Frowde and accompanied by Richard Sisson (formerly of musical comedy duo Kit and The Widow).

Singers will explore new works which the choir has premiered and will soon be recording, alongside Tippett’s Spirituals from ‘A Child of Our Time’. This will include a new work by Asha Parkinson, whose work has been praised for its colour, sophistication, and humanity.“Asha’s work is in tune with the world, which like it, can sometimes be joyful, tormented, poetic.” (Paris Move). We are also thrilled that Richard Sisson has offered to share insights of his compositional process during the afternoon.
