The Damon Singers is a friendly, mixed choir of about 25 – 30 voices which performs a wide repertoire of mainly unaccompanied, a cappella music from all periods and from across the world. We are based in Chesham, Buckinghamshire and give about 3 – 4 concerts a year.
Our next programme is our annual summertime Pudding Concert which promises to be a feast for the ears and the taste buds! It’s a roughly one-hour programme of music and readings which is followed by delicious home-made puddings – all included in the very modest ticket price. In the year of David Attenborough’s one hundredth birthday we celebrate the natural world from seas and landscapes to plants and animals (some admittedly fictional…) with music by a broad range of composers from Palestrina and Saint-Saëns to Henry Mancini and Tom Lehrer. We are also delighted to be joined by the immensely versatile duo The GillyBillies whose music is a happy mixture of celtic romps and folk tunes with a European flavour. Nature’s Voice is on Saturday 18th July at 7.30pm in Christ Church, Waterside and is not to be missed! More information here.

We would be delighted to see you at one of our concerts and, if you would like to join a small, friendly choir, please contact Andy Scott (07747 455704) or info@damonsingers.co.uk and come along to one of our weekly rehearsals. Anyone who can sing is very welcome to join us at a rehearsal!
