Vocal Ensemble London

This dynamic group of young professional singers regularly perform on TV and radio, as well as in concert halls. Led by Hilary Campbell, the ensemble was formed in 2003 while the members were undergraduates at the University of York, and moved to London in 2007.

In 2005, the Vocal Ensemble filmed a medley of Christmas carols for BBC2, which aired during the snooker final. Since then, they have performed nationwide and abroad. They sang for Prince Charles on ITV1 as part of his 60th birthday celebrations, and debuted at Queen Elizabeth Hall in 2009 as part of the Voicelab series. The group has also filmed for the TNT Show on Channel 4, a social media campaign for Clintons Cards, created ads for sky+, HBO, and Channel 5, and recorded two shows of Sunday Half Hour for BBC Radio 2. They also broadcast multiple shows quarterly for the Daily Service on BBC Radio 4.

In concert, the group has performed at major London venues like Wigmore Hall, St John’s Smith Square, and St James Piccadilly, as well as internationally at places like the Royal Palace, Madrid.

The Vocal Ensemble is available for TV and radio work, concerts, events, festivals, and private functions. Depending on your needs, the group can provide between six and twenty-four singers. Their client list includes: Channel 5; HBO; ITV1; Channel 4; BBC2; BBC Radio 2; BBC Radio 3; BBC Radio 4; sky+; Jack FM; Clintons Cards; National Lottery; National Theatre; the Duke of Kent (St James’ Palace); The Prince of Wales (Wimbledon New Theatre); Royal Palace, Madrid; Bradfield Music Festival; Aquascutum; Barclays; Marks and Spencer’s; Fenwick’s; House of Fraser; Alton Towers; Waterstones; Harper Collins; Canary Wharf; Cancer Research UK; Action Against Hunger; London’s Air Ambulance; National Maritime Museum; Hever Castle; Charlton House; Taste of Christmas; RHS Wisley; various Rotary clubs; the Worshipful Company of Masons, and Union Square Music.

Although based in London, the singers are very willing to travel. The ensemble’s director would be happy to suggest repertoire, but if you have a particular piece of music in mind, this can often be accommodated. The group also offers an arranging service; a professional composer will gladly write a custom choral arrangement for your event or concert. In recent months, clients have requested choral arrangements of music by Elbow, Mariah Carey, Louis Armstrong, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Puccini, and Marvin Gaye.
