Here you can find details of who we are, what's coming up this season, and what we've been doing previously (have a look at the recordings page for more). Established in 1988, JCS is a London based chamber choir specialising in performance of some of the finest a cappella music written across the centuries.
JCS on BBC TV SOUNDTRACK
The JCS perform on David Mitcham’s soundtrack for the new series “Ice Age Giants”. Episodes on Sundays 19th & 26th May, and 2nd June.
AN ASCENT TO HEAVENLY MUSIC
If you are lucky enough or even brave enough to ascend London's iconic new landmark, The Shard, your rise to the viewing platform will be in a lift travelling at six metres per second.
Your flight skyward will be enhanced by music relayed in the lifts as you ascend. Highly acclaimed by the press at the opening, the music was especially commissioned from the London Symphony Orchestra.
Recorded at Abbey Road Studios in June 2012, the Joyful Company of Singers were chosen by composer David Mitcham to be the vocalists featured in his composition now heard at The Shard each time the lifts take their passengers up to the viewing areas.
Be sure to listen as you take this short journey and keep your fellow passengers attentive to the JCS sound!!
