Chanta
was formed in 1999 and quickly established itself in London as a stylish
and energetic young chamber choir. It draws singers from all over the
country and from all walks of life.
Strong commitment from its members has helped
forge a growing reputation as an outstanding choir with a national reputation.
Chanta performs a wide range of repertoire, programming works traditionally
performed by English chamber choirs alongside lesser known works sourced
from foreign choral cultures.
More recently Chanta has been experimenting
with group vocal percussion and other unusual contemporary styles. There
is something for everyone at each Chanta performance, and the choir
will take on any vocal challenge. The choir supports young composers,
regularly premiering new compositions and arrangements, many being written
by its members.
The choir regularly performs across the United
Kingdom and collaborates with choirs of all types, particularly school
and youth choirs. As well as being invited to sing at a number of choral
conventions, Chanta has also performed for a number of television and
radio broadcasts.
For weddings, we will supply anything from
3 to 4 singers to help your congregation musically strong in hymns,
or if you would prefer to leave the singing to the professionals, a
choir of anything from four to twenty singers with organist or chamber
ensemble and can be guaranteed to provide a high quality musical feature.
