Professional Singers Scheme launched
The Philharmonia Chorus has launched its Professional Singers Scheme. Applications were invited from singers in the first 10 years of their careers, and those successful at audition will be singing as members of the Chorus in concerts later this year. Auditions were held January 13-15 at the Music Studios in Marylebone Lane, London, and singers were heard by chorus masters Stefan Bevier and Deborah Miles-Johnson, with chorus accompanist Steven Rose.

'The choral singing.....had tremendous force and clarity, even when Noseda, in his quest for almost frenzied immediacy, adopted speeds that were close on breakneck. Thrilling, even dangerous stuff, and absolutely outstanding.'

"The Philharmonia Chorus was superb throughout and the amplified ghosts were truly cacophonous."
