The London Oriana Choir is one of Britain's leading amateur choral groups in London. Since its inception in 1973,  the choir has grown from strength to strength performing at London's top venues such as the Royal Albert Hall and St Martin-in-the-Fields. 

The choir's repertoire is broad, ranging from great choral and orchestral works by Verdi, Brahms, Mozart, Handel and Bach to contemporary commissions.  A cappella music is also sung in many languages and in all styles.  The choir has performed with leading orchestras like the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, BBC Concert Orchestra and the Brandenburg Sinfonia.  Each year, the choir embarks on at least one overseas tour.  Its Musical Director, David Peckham is hailed as one of the UK's most dynamic and exciting conductors of his generation.

The programme of the London Oriana Choir includes enchanting works by Thomas Louis de Victoria, Claudio Monteverdi, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, Eric Whitacre, Bob Chilcott, James MacMillan, Elizabeth Alexander, William Hawley, Mia Makaroff and Moses Hogan.

After the concert, light refreshments will be served in the grounds of the Medieval chapel.  For more info and reservations email [email protected] or call 21225952.
