Widely regarded as one of the foremost chamber choirs in Derbyshire, The Sitwell Singers have been making music together for over 50 years. We have built a reputation for “stylistically spot-on” performances of a varied repertoire, from the great choral masterpieces of European sacred music to folk, jazz and Billy Joel.
“deeply thoughtful … beautifully sensitive”
We are based at St John’s, Bridge Street in Derby, but perform in venues all over the city, the East Midlands and the Peak District. With a core membership of around 30 singers, we present four to five concerts each season, a mix of large-scale works and lighter seasonal programmes. Whether we’re singing a cappella or with brass or a period string ensemble, we’re known for our “huge dynamic range” and our “immaculate blend”.
“… ebbs and flows of tension superbly controlled”

Brochure for Season 2024-25
An annual highlight for the whole family, we will be presenting a varied programme of stunning seasonal music. We shall be sharing traditional favourites as well as introducing you to hidden choral gems.
There will also be the opportunity for you to take part as we invite you to join in the singing of some Christmas carols with us.
We will have a bar available during the interval, with alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages available to purchase (cash/card) to accompany your free mince pie!
You will also have the opportunity to meet the conductor and some of the choir members during the interval, as we mingle with the audience during this break in the concert.
Tickets are available in advance here.
