Reading Phoenix Choir
Reading Phoenix Choir is a 50 strong mixed voice choir.
Directed by Norman Morris, it has members of all backgrounds
and ages, with musical experience ranging from music degrees/diplomas
to relatively poor sight readers, all sharing a love of
choral music.
The choir has made a series of CD recordings, and features
regularly on BBC radio and TV, most recently in Songs
of Praise and Sunday Half Hour.
Phoenix does not sing the "works" but explores
the whole range of a capella music, early and contemporary,
sacred and secular, serious and light. The choir has given
over 20 first performances of pieces which have been specially
commissioned for the choir.
