Meet the
Choir

We are the Brandenburg Choir — a passionate and versatile ensemble renowned for our astonishing vocal blend, technical virtuosity, and a deep love for the music we perform. Since our very first appearance in 1999 under the direction of Artistic Director Paul Dyer, we’ve been an essential and celebrated part of the Brandenburg story.

It all began with our debut in the inaugural Noël! Noël! concert, a beautiful fusion of medieval chant, polyphony, and traditional carols from around the world, sung in their original languages. That first performance, featuring 13 voices alongside our Orchestra, captured hearts with its rare mix of scholarly depth, musical authenticity and sheer beauty. It was an instant success — and Noël! Noël! has become an enduring favourite, recorded and shared across four live albums, all available on Apple Music, iTunes and Spotify.

Since those early days, we’ve continued to grow and evolve, regularly taking the stage as part of the Brandenburg’s annual subscription season. From the sacred intensity of Bach’s Cantatas and Mozart’s Requiem to the jubilant brilliance of Handel’s Coronation Anthems and Ode for St. Cecilia’s Day, our repertoire spans centuries and styles — each performance a new opportunity to connect with audiences through the power of the human voice.

What unites us is more than musical training or experience — though many of us are professional singers with music degrees — it’s our shared passion for bringing early music to life. We come from all walks of life: music teachers, lawyers, doctors, business managers and beyond. But when we gather to rehearse and perform, we are one voice, one spirit, devoted to the Brandenburg sound.

For us, the voice is the most intimate and expressive ‘early instrument’ — capable of conveying joy, sorrow, love, and triumph across time and culture. Our performances, whether meditative chants or rollicking carols, are designed to uplift and transport. And through our Mentorship Program, led by seasoned choristers with decades of experience, we’re also committed to nurturing the next generation of singers, ensuring the Brandenburg legacy continues to thrive.

We invite you to join us in the future, to revel in the raw energy of the human voice, and to experience the soul-stirring harmony of the Brandenburg Choir.

The current members of the Brandenburg Choir are all professional singers, many of whom also hold music degrees, but they do not all sing full time. From music teachers to lawyers, business managers to medical doctors and nurses, each member looks forward to the opportunity to perform with the Brandenburg throughout the year.
