The Singers are directed by Dr Simon Lindley, Music Director since the choir's foundation in 1977.

We possess a wealth of experience from the worlds of classical, sacred and popular music and balance our love for the old renaissance masters with a passion for exciting contemporary composers through commissioning and performing our own original material. Regardless of what we sing we believe the universal principles of perfect tonal blend, colour, and precise intonation, shine through in every performance.  less

Verse:Help us, O God of our salvation, and for the honour [glory] of thy name deliver us.  Psalm, 78, Verse 9a This noble and deeply-felt penitential motet proper to the first day [Ash Wednesday] and the first Sunday [Quadragesima] of the Lenten season is one of the very finest such works from the golden age of English polyphonic music. It comes from the Cantiones Sacra...    less
