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 on Saturday 7th December. The choir is looking forward to performing under the baton of our new musical director Ben Noble and invite you to join us in a Christmas Concert with a difference. For many people Christmas is as much a time of remembrance as celebration or feasting and we begin with the Faure Requiem which Faure himself described as 'a lullaby of death'. This well known, serene and beautiful work will be followed by Christmas music and carols which sustain the peaceful and contemplative nature of the concert. The wonderful accoustics of St Mary's Church are made for evenings like this.

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