Brighton Consort

Brighton Consort presents four or five concerts a year in Brighton and the surrounding area. In addition we help to further knowledge of renaissance and early baroque music by running occasional workshops, which are led by some of the U.K.'s greatest experts on the repertoire.

We are very pleased to announce that Greg Skidmore has recently been appointed to succeed James Dixon in the post of Music Director for Brighton Consort.

Greg is well known as an expert in the interpretation of Renaissance vocal music and he has a high profile as a performer with prestigious groups such as The Tallis Scholars, The Sixteen, Ex Cathedra, I Fagiolini, Alamire, Tenebrae and Contrapunctus. He will bring to the choir a wealth of experience and many novel ideas for future programmes.

At this important stage in the development of Brighton Consort, the choir is keen to recruit new members with a love for this style of music so anyone interested is invited to email Mike Clemens at for more details. We currently have vacancies in all voice parts. Rehearsals are currently being held on Wednesday evenings. As well as being a quality-orientated group, Brighton Consort has a friendly crowd of singers and we will give a warm welcome to new joiners.
