Mixed Choral Chorus from Tetsworth, Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England.

The Oxford Pro Musica Singers was founded by Michael Smedley in 1977 as the Oxford Pro Musica Chorus, to sing with the then Oxford Pro Musica Orchestra in major choral works. In its early years the choir performed with some distinguished conductors, including Simon Preston, Christopher Seaman and Jane Glover. It also had a long and happy relationship with Denis Arnold, Professor of Music at Oxford University, who conducted many concerts of his beloved Venetian music. But the choir increasingly performed apart from the orchestra, and in 1985 claimed independence and adopted its current name.

Since that time the choir has performed hundreds of concerts of many types and recorded a number of CDs. Highlights have been the choir's appearances at the Purcell Room, on London's South Bank, in both 1993 and 2003 in concerts celebrating the Queen's Coronation, concerts in St John's, Smith Square and the Queen Elizabeth Hall and a string of concerts in the Sheldonian Theatre, Oxford, performing the finest choral works with professional orchestras. The choir has appeared several times on BBC Radio 3 - twice on 'In Tune' and several times on 'Brian Kay's Sunday Morning', for which programme the choir specially recorded a set of part-songs in honour of Queen Victoria unheard for nearly 100 years. In 2003 the choir provided the chorus for Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with the Philharmonia Orchestra under Benjamin Zander - an unforgettable experience!
