Stargazing: Rodolfus Choir Concert at Holy Trinity Church, Sloane Square

The Rodolfus Choir is a leading UK youth choir for young people aged 16-23, many of whom have attended a Rodolfus Choral Course. Singers from across the UK are invited to sign up to take part in exciting events throughout the year. Our aim is to offer professional, high-quality choral singing opportunities and to share wonderful choral repertoire with diverse audiences across the UK and beyond. A key highlight in our annual calendar is the concert season between Christmas and New Year when the Choir performs two concerts of festive choral repertoire.

The choir's brilliant young singers present a concert of music for new beginnings. Surveying five centuries of choral music, the programme features music which explores both the light and darkness of the winter sky.
