Our next concert – 14 November 2026
We are delighted to invite you to our autumn concert where we will be performing Mendelssohn’s thrilling oratorio ‘Elijah’. This dramatic biblical epic is a favourite with NLC and our supporters alike, so we look forward to sharing it with you.
As ever we have a wonderful line-up of soloists. Bass-baritone Alaric Green takes on the title role of the prophet Elijah and is joined by Madeline Boreham (soprano), Clare Presland (mezzo-soprano) and Matthew McKinney (tenor) in this masterpiece of musical storytelling.
We will be accompanied by our regular partners the Meridian Sinfonia under the experienced baton of Murray Hipkin.
We expect tickets to sell out quickly for this inspiring evening so please do get yours soon.
Thank you for your support!

About us
We’re a friendly local choir, rehearsing on Thursday evenings and singing a varied and exciting repertoire of sacred and secular music from the last six hundred years or so.
Led by our amazing musical director Murray Hipkin, we give concerts three times a year, often with professional orchestras and soloists, and our main performance base is St James Church in Muswell Hill.
Rehearsals take place at Martin Primary School East Finchley on Thursday evenings. If you love singing, want the chance to perform in regular concerts and be part of our community, visit our joining page here to get in touch and find out more about singing with us.

We are very grateful to our existing sponsors, Nimrod Capital and Goodman Jones.
Running a choir these days is extremely expensive. We employ a Musical Director and an accompanist, as well as a vocal coach who helps to improve our singing technique; we rent a rehearsal space; we hire venues, soloists and orchestral players for concerts. Members’ subscriptions and ticket sales are not enough to maintain our high musical standards and support our work. Please consider supporting us!
