If your musical taste can accommodate music from Guerrero to Gershwin, by way of Gibbons and Gorecki, then The Leeds Guild of Singers is for you!
This enterprising choir of about 25 members presents about ten concerts each season, singing mostly unaccompanied music in venues across Yorkshire, and sometimes beyond. Rehearsals in Leeds University Music Department on Tuesday evenings may be informal and convivial - but the choir seeks to maintain the highest standards.

We also like to explore adventurous repertoire, which has included in recent seasons programmes of Russian sacred music, French music from 14th to 20th centuries, Spanish and Portuguese polyphony from the Golden Age, as well as English music by Byrd, Tallis, Tomkins and Weelkes to works by Stanford, Howells, Vaughan Williams and Britten, by John Tavener and Gabriel Jackson, several first performances and lighter music.

Next concert: Madrigals, Mozart and Mayhem,
A light hearted, entertaining programme of choral comedy featuring Mozart & Bach, alongside Gershwin, Duke Ellington and Cole Porter - and a surprise or two: details here.



Previous concert: The Lily That Dazzles,
A concert of Marian music, including the haunting chants of Hildegard of Bingen and the sublimely beautiful "Ave Maria" by Robert Parsons: details here.
