London Concord Singers is a friendly amateur chamber choir based in the Smithfield area, a short walk from Farringdon tube. We rehearse on Monday evenings with our Musical Director, Jessica Norton and give three main concerts per year.

Rachmaninoff's All Night Vigil

For our Easter concert we joined forces with East London Chorus to present one of the iconic works for unaccompanied choir from the 20th century. Conducted by Jessica Norton, the combined forces of the East London Chorus and London Concord Singers performed Rachmaninoff's All Night Vigil (Vespers) on his 150th anniversary at St Mary's Church, West Kensington. Our video shows two minutes of highlights from the event.

London Concord Singers' Archive

London Concord Singers was founded by Malcolm Cottle in 1966 and so the choir's archive spans some 56 years. Thanks to one of our members, this archive has been digitised and is available to browse on our Archive page. Here you can see which works we have performed, and where, along with looking at early concert programmes and posters.

Come Sing with Us!

Singers are invited to join us for an exciting season of concerts. We have just started rehearsing our programme of 20th century English music for our concert on 7 July 2022.

London Concord Singers, music director Jessica Norton, invites you to come along to one of our rehearsals to try this friendly amateur chamber choir with a passion for tackling challenging music. Rehearsals start on Monday 10 January 2022, and we hope to welcome new members.

We are a chamber choir of around 25 singers and sing a wide range of repertoire, from early music to contemporary. We rehearse in the Smithfield area on Monday evenings, and our next concert is on 7 April 2022.
