The Athenaeum Singers
A friendly, welcoming, non-auditioned choir based in Warminster (Wiltshire, UK).
About the choir
Thomas has been conductor of the Athenaeum Singers since November 2022.
The Athenaeum Singers are a mixed-voice, non-auditioned choir based in Warminster, Wiltshire. The choir has around sixty members who rehearse each Tuesday evening. We perform two major concerts each year, usually featuring the main choral classics but also including lesser known byways of the choral repertoire. We also perform contemporary music, including world premiers of commissioned works. In our concerts we are supported by professional soloists and instrumentalists.
Previous and Upcoming Concerts
