The Cherwell Singers are an Oxford-based chamber choir, founded in 1977. We sing all types of music from the late Middle Ages to the present day - including mainstays of the choral repertoire and lesser-known, even obscure, works. We place a high value on musicianship, aiming to perform to a consistently high standard.
Recent performances include: Mozart, Requiem; Bach, B minor mass; Brahms, Ein Deutsches Requiem; Martin, Mass for Double Choir; and Verdi, Stabat Mater.
We give three public concerts per year in central Oxford, and also perform at private functions, including conferences and weddings. Next concert
