The Chamber Singers is a choir of 50 highly skilled singers which specialises in virtuosic choral repertoire from the Renaissance to the 21st century. The ensemble is renowned for its dynamic performances, exceptional musicianship and professionalism. The Singers’ performances can be intimate and delicate, yet have the vocal power to inspire awe. They have premiered Australian music by Dan Walker, Deborah Cheetham Fraillon and Luke Byrne, amongst others, and have regularly performed with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra including performances of Eötvös’ Halleluja – Oratorium balbulum. You can hear the Chamber Singers on the album This Secret World, the music of Dan Walker.
Every year, Chamber Singers perform their own concerts, and in 2025 that will include JS Bach’s St Matthew Passion and Christmas Oratorio at the Sydney Opera House and a program based around Christopher Tin’s Lost Birds in the White Bay Power Station. In the last two years, Chamber Singers have also performed Sir James MacMillan’s Stabat Mater along with other works in St Andrew’s Cathedral, John Peterson’s Shadows and Light, Fauré’s Requiem, and Rodgers & Hammerstein Showstoppers in Sydney Town Hall, and works by Scarlatti, Monteverdi and more in their Voices of the Italian Baroque at St James’ King Street.
Chamber Singers rehearses on Monday evenings with some additional rehearsals throughout the year.
