Beautiful a cappella music

A Symphony of Voices

We invite you to join us for this unique a cappella experience - a journey through choral soundscapes showcasing the profound artistry of unaccompanied singing. From Romantic masterpieces by Schumann and Bruckner to the shimmering contemporary a cappella of Whitacre and Ešenvalds, you’ll discover an exquisite sound that transcends all eras. The resonant acoustic of Holy Trinity is the ideal space for the music to soar seamlessly with the beauty and power of Vivace voices.

If you missed our stunning sell-out The Creation, here is another chance to see our dynamic new MD Barbara Höfling in action! Barbara is a highly respected choral conductor, full of energy and enthusiasm: who better to lead us through this a cappella experience?

We’re joined in this special concert by internationally-acclaimed organist Stephen Farr, recognised as “one of the brightest and most active English recitalists” who “plays with immaculate finesse and buoyancy” (Classic CD).
