Finchley Chamber Choir, recently described by Making Music as 'one of London's finest amateur classical choirs', was formed in 1973 and maintains close links with its sister organisation, Finchley Symphony Orchestra, both groups giving regular seasons at Trinity Church, North Finchley, including some joint concerts.
The choir consists of approximately thirty singers from the Finchley area and elsewhere in North London, working to a high musical standard and providing almost all its own soloists. We perform a wide range of music from the 16th century right through to the present day, including commissions and first performances. In 2014, the choir gave the world premieres of two works, one by Paul Patterson and another by Richard Bullen.
To begin the celebration of FCC's 50th Anniversary season in 2023-24, we presented a special concert in November 2023
with Linden Baroque to a large and appreciative audience at St James's Church, Piccadilly (following a very successful
performance of Bach's St John Passion there in 2020).
FCC has also appeared twice at the Voices Now Choral Festival at the Roundhouse,
including a live broadcast on BBC Radio 3's The Choir. Previous radio appearances include Classic FM and a Radio 3 broadcast
that was selected for Pick of the Week on Radio 4. The choir has received three PRS Awards for Enterprise.
We're currently looking for a few more singers to join the choir. If you have some experience of choral singing and sight-reading, please see Join FCC for more information.
