About City University Chamber Choir
City University Chamber Choir comprises vocalists from the Department of Performing Arts and from across the university. In recent seasons, they have performed large-scale works including Haydn’s Missa in tempore belli ("Paukenmesse"), Vivaldi’s Gloria, Fauré's Requiem, and programmes exploring work by Arvo Pärt and music for royal occasions.
In 2018 and 2019, the choir travelled to Paris to participate in the festival de printemps de l’Université PSL, together with other international vocal groups, performing Brahm’s German Requiem and Schubert’s Mass in E flat.
They are directed by Rory McCleery, countertenor and founder of the critically acclaimed vocal ensemble The Marian Consort.
Attendance at City events is subject to our terms and conditions.
