Kingfisher Chorale:
About Us



Founded in 1992 by David Fisher, Kingfisher Chorale is a Midlands-based chamber choir of some repute. 

It has become a leading chamber choir in the country, winning through to the Finals Weekend of the Sainsbury’s Choir of the Year Competition and appearing on BBC TV and radio.

Many works have been written for the choir and concerts have been given at Musical Festivals, National Trust venues, at many of the University Concert series in Leicester and at the annual popular Christmas concerts given in Leicester’s medieval Guildhall before Christmas.

Kingfisher Chorale has received critical acclaim for its work across a wide repertoire spanning Medieval music to a number of commissions and world premieres. The choir has championed less well known repertoire including works by Biber and Distler. It has developed a reputation for its performances of contemporary music including works by Fisher, Pärt, Crump, Downes, Sjoberg, Jewitt and Duxbury.Musical Directors David Fisher and Giles Turner bring a wealth of national and international experience both having worked with top performers in the country and on the continent.
