    Overview

    Formed in 2013 with the aim of representing the LGBT+ community on London’s classical music scene, The Fourth Choir has performed at the Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall and the National Holocaust Memorial Ceremony (both televised on the BBC) as well as at many of London’s iconic cultural venues including the Chapels Royal at the Tower of London and Hampton Court, the British Library, the British Museum, the Royal Vauxhall Tavern and Shakespeare’s Globe.

    The concert will be introduced by the Choir’s Patron, Ann Murray DBE.
