Celebrating the unwavering dedication of our Chorus
Vision, raw talent and a striving for excellence were the founding principals on which the Edinburgh Festival Chorus was established in 1965. This year we celebrate 60 exceptional years of this extraordinary collection of singers.
Our Chorus has graced international stages, from Paris to Salzburg, and performed with the world’s most exciting orchestras and conductors, but The Hub where they rehearse will always be where they call home.
The Edinburgh Festival Chorus really is the beating heart of the Festival.Nicola Benedetti
Singing in the chorus is an enriching and powerful experience. It requires commitment to high drama, concentration and music delivery at a breath-taking emotional level; I have cried several times leaving the stage.Ian Phillips, Tenor 1
