“fine line and clear sound…lovely transparency of texture”
Review of “Joy, Sorrow, Song” 30 October 2007: Robert Hugill, Music and Vision
City of London vocal ensemble Londinium is equally at home singing Renaissance repertoire
as Romantic, modern or contemporary music. Since its debut in November 2005, this dynamic new
ensemble has been noted for its 'fine line and clear sound' and 'lovely transparency of texture'
in performances of mainly a-cappella and often lesser-known repertoire ranging from Palestrina
to James MacMillan and Robin Holloway.
With between 20 and 30 performers drawn from our pool of singers,
Londinium gives four or five concerts a year under our Musical Director
Madeleine Lovell. We usually rehearse and perform in London's
beautiful City churches,
and regularly undertake other engagements.
Londinium's next concert, Around the World in 80 Minutes
on 22 July 2009 at St Mary at Hill, Lovat Lane, London, EC3R 8EE. Tickets can be bought on the door price £12 (full), £9 (concessions) or
reserved online at the discount prices of £10 (full), £8 (conc).
Londinium's long-term cycle
The Seven Deadly Sins will start in autumn 2009 with the tantalising theme of Lust.
