Welcome to the website of the London-based choir, the Iken Scholars.

​

WE'RE BACK!

​

After what feels like and age, the Iken Scholars are back and we're giving our first concert on 7 November at 7.30pm at All Saints' Blackheath. The programme is packed with Renaissance masterpieces on the theme of All Souls and All Saints and will include Victoria's sublime Requiem.

Established in 2012, the choir was formed to sing little-heard Renaissance works in London and further afield. Recent venues have included the Cadogan Hall, St John's Smith Square, Westminster Abbey, St Paul's Cathedral, Southwark Cathedral and St Mary-le-Bow, Cheapside.

​

The choir is directed by Matthew Dunn.

(5/5) An impressive performance by the Iken Scholars, under the very able direction of Matthew Dunn. Beautiful Renaissance polyphony, richly and sensitively explored by this group of singers, within the excellent acoustic of St Stephen Walbrook. Very powerful and moving.'

​

'(5/5) A very fine performance of some highly charged and powerful Passiontide music. The Iken Scholars responded sensitively and intelligently to the emotional and technical demands of these complex Renaissance pieces.'

​

'(5/5) This was perfection! The fourteen singers of Iken Scholars produced a sound well balanced and full while the relationship between the conductor, Matthew Dunn, and the singers was palpable. '
