BOOK THE CHOIR

The Capital Children’s Choir is highly versatile and has had years of experience performing and recording. Past performances have ranged from small charity events to massive stadium gigs. The choir is flexible and the number of performers can range from a small group of 8 backing singers to a massive chorus of 100. The choristers are able to sing different genres and styles of singing, as per request - and they can pick up new music by ear, or sight read on demand!

The choristers feel extremely lucky to have worked with a wide range of performers… from legendary artists to up-and-coming young singers. In fact, many of our members continue to perform and record as session singers long after they graduate from the children’s choir!
