During this time they have developed a reputation for their commitment to the highest level of musicality. Comprising some of the finest young singers in the country, members of the choir are all alumni of the Eton Choral Courses.
Conducted by their founder Ralph Allwood, the sound of the choir is a reflection of their profound sensitivity to text, blend and phrasing. They use imaginative programming, and have become known for their innovative and exciting performances and their extensive array of recordings. The most recent addition to this catalogue will be released in November 2013, and features works by Paul Mealor and Benjamin Britten.
As well as regular broadcasts on BBC Radio, the Rodolfus Choir is developing an increasing profile for work on film and television. Recent projects have included working with James Horner at Abbey Road Studios to record the soundtrack to the forthcoming film Romeo and Juliet. The choir returned here in July 2013 to record Elgar's Sea Pictures with the English Chamber Orchestra. 2013 marked the Anniversary of the Rodolfus Choir. This is being celebrated with a performance of Handel’s Messiah with the English Chamber Orchestra at Cadogan Hall and a Gala Concert at St John’s Smith Square on New Year’s Eve. less
