The Choir of the Grosvenor Chapel sings at the Eucharist each Sunday morning (except during August), and for the great festivals of the Church's calender. There is also a monthly choral evensong on the third Thursday of the month at 6.30.
The regular ensemble of five voices is frequently joined by extra singers. The choir also gives occasional concerts, and has a busy schedule of weddings and extra services. The Chapel Choir is available to sing concerts and at services and events outside the Chapel - please contact the Director of Music, Richard Hobson.
Their repertoire includes music from the renaissance to the 20th century. Easter Day is celebrated with a Viennese mass setting with orchestral accompaniment, and Rememberance Sunday is marked by a liturgical performance of Gabriel Faure's Requiem Mass with instruemntal ensemble. The choir has recorded two CDs: The Spirit of Christmas and Into thy hands - The Music of Grosvenor Chapel. Details on the CD page.
Enquiries are always welcome from experienced professional or semi-professional singers with excellent sight reading and appropriate experience who would like to be considered for our deplist. Please send send a CV to the Director of Music, Richard Hobson at hbsrnh@aol.com.
The congregation of the Grosvenor Chapel seeks to offer the best in traditional church music both ancient and modern.
Donations in support of the music are always welcome.
