The Singers during a break in rehearsals at All Saints on Newcastle's Quayside, October 2007

Welcome to the web site of The Singers. We hope you enjoy your visit and we look forward to welcoming you to one of our concerts - or even as a Singer - in the near future.

Last season was an exciting and demanding one for The Singers. Our Christmas Candlelit Tour was as popular as ever and included performances with the English Philharmonic in Hexham Abbey and Beverley Minster as well as performances in Carlisle and Newcastle. The choir had two residential weekends singing the liturgy in St George's Chapel, Windsor and Southwark Cathedral, London. We also sang the Epiphany High Mass in Durham Cathedral and gave a concert in St Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh.

Our current season promises to be equally exciting. Our Christmas concerts have been extended to include Middlesbrough and Darlington. We have more local concerts this season with concerts in Newcastle (All Saints, Quayside and St George's, Jesmond), Brinkburn Priory and a choral evensong in Durham Cathedral. We are also planning a long weekend in Cologne exploring some of the city's magnificent romanesque churches.

Why not join us?

We have changed our name to The Singers to reflect our current ambitions in standards, recruitment and concert giving. The Singers currently has vacancies for experienced singers. We recruit quite widely and it may be possible to provide lifts and/or accommodation if you live outside the North of England. Please contact the conductor if you are interested in joining the choir.
