The group originates in the conservatoire’s chapel choir at the Old Royal Naval College, where they sing twice a week in term time to complement their solo vocal studies. Their collective experience in choral singing enables them to perform with balance, nuance, and close-knit ensemble as a quartet.
The New Eden Consort performs a range of sacred and secular music, and explores works from as early as the Renaissance period to contemporary music by living composers – and everything in between. A recent highlight has been progressing to the Final of the Carne Trust Chamber Music Competition at Trinity Laban.
Alongside their live performances, the group hope to reach a wider audience through their social media presence, with the aim to make classical music more accessible. Instagram: @thenewedenconsort Facebook: The New Eden Consort
