About us

"This was a brilliantly musical offering to music's patron saint" BachTrack.com

Calton Consort has established itself as one of Edinburgh's most prominent chamber choirs, performing a varied and challenging repertoire to high acclaim.

Performances are often a cappella and characterised by fresh and dynamic interpretations of works from a wide range of eras, with an emphasis on less frequently performed compositions.

Calton Consort was founded in 2001 by 12 friends, who were also singers, for a concert in aid of a church roof appeal. The choir now comprises around 30 singers and typically performs three concerts a year including appearances at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
