The Oriel Singers
Performer entry
As a choir we aim to achieve the highest standards of choral performance in an informal and friendly atmosphere, both in rehearsal and in concert.
We have performed with distinguished groups such as The Orlando Consort, The Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, and I Fagiolini. We have also broadcast recitals on BBC Radio 3 and services on BBC Radio 4, given concert tours in Ireland, France, Belgium, Austria, the Czech Republic, and Italy, and sung services in many of the great English cathedrals. We have also been invited to take part in various music festivals, including the prestigious Cheltenham International Festival of Music and Three Choirs Festivals.
Back in 2005 we were the winners of the BBC Radio 3 Choir of the Year competition, and under the dynamic leadership of our current musical director, Ben Sawyer, who joined us in 2015, we have continued to perform to the highest level.
