Repertoire

We have a huge selection of repertoire between us. Classical music from Baroque through to the Romantic era and continuing with more contemporary music from Stravinsky to Britten and expanding to new music composed from the late 20th century to today.

Opera is what we mainly have performed in the past few years but song is also something we enjoy and love exploring.

Whether it’s a grand opera gala, an intimate recital with attention to detail in repertoire choices or themed recitals, we enjoy all of them. If you know exactly what you want or if you’d like something different with some guidance, we are more than happy to help.
