London-Based Choral Society

We welcome singers, and there is no audition to join the Ripieno. Abilities range from those with professional experience to people who’ve only sung in the shower.

​

Singing is a happy experience, and a creative one. You won’t even be asked to sightread music, though of course it’s easier if you do. If you have a reasonable ear for music, if you like singing, come along to a Ripieno rehearsal and try. There is a probationary period, but if the Music Director is satisfied after two or three weeks, you’re in.

​

Rehearsals are now on Monday evenings, 7.15 - 9.15pm. The venue is in Marylebone. The nearest tube stations are Baker Street and Marble Arch.

​

The London Ripieno Singers are a friendly group of interesting people with all kinds of jobs, all kinds of interests, all kinds of backgrounds. Monday evenings are social events as well as practices.

​

The membership subscription is £50 per term (three terms in the year). If you’re a taxpayer, you can help us by saying so and allowing us to claim a rebate, very useful for the Society funds.

​

Our repertoire is varied, from early music to contemporary works, including opera. The Society aims to give two or three public concerts a year both in Central London and other localities.
