Music Director

Meet our new Musical Director for Autumn Term 2024

Benjamin Noble

Already established as an operatic baritone and concert soloist Benjamin is looking forward to leading his first choral society almost as much as we are looking forward to working under his direction.

Benjamin is Musical Director of the Military WAGS Choir and has facilitated music-making across the Northeast of England with schools and adult ensembles, through his work with The National Youth Choirs of Great Britain, Streetwise Opera, Middlesbrough Town Hall, and Vacation Chamber Orchestras. He transfers this experience to his pupils through his teaching practice.

He is a fully qualified singing teacher with both QTS and DBS, with a BA (Hons) in Music from The University of York.

This is the start of a journey on which we will grow together. As Ben says, ‘singing well is an exhilarating experience, connecting us to our deepest instincts of communication’. Why not come and join us and discover your own voice.

Featured Event

Our next concert is on Saturday 5th April 2025. The choir is looking forward to performing for the second time under the baton of our new musical director Ben Noble. Haydn's The Creation was at the top of Ben's 'wish list' for his first major work with the choir. It hasn't been heard in Richmond since 2016. This masterpiece of the choral-orchestral repertoire is perfomed in collaboration with local instrumentalists and notable soloists.

We look forward to seeing you at St Mary's Church, Richmond.
