Magical Choral Performance

Our Chamber Choir and ETS (Eric Thiman Singers) sang at the iconic Chapel Royal at Hampton Court Palace in an Evensong service that was uplifting and stirring. Chamber Choir showed skill and precision in their singing of the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis settings by Purcell and in the response settings by Byrd. The anthem and psalm were sung beautifully by ETS and both choirs together performed a jubilant hymn with force and energy. Chapel Royal is a significant venue for choral music- both Purcell and Byrd wrote for the chapel as far back as 1572. It was a wonderful experience for Caterham choirs to perform in this inspiring setting and all who attended were keen to congratulate the choirs on their achievement. Hampton Court representatives expressed their admiration for our choirs and commented on their professionalism as well as their singing. Our Chamber Choir and ETS continue to impress and astound audiences and all singers should be delighted and proud of their accomplishments. Mr Adam Assen, Director of Music
