Viva la Musica Chamber Choir
Viva La Musica is a chamber choir from Loughborough and the surrounding area. We perform a wide variety of sacred and secular repertoire, mostly 'a capella'. Founded in 2002, the choir is directed by Simon Lumby. Many of our members sing regularly with other larger local choirs but enjoy the challenge of singing some of the more demanding repertoire in a smaller group. In the last years, Viva La Musica has become recognised locally as one of the more exciting chamber ensembles operating in the East Midlands. Invitations to sing at churches and Cathedrals are prepared for alongside a busy schedule of concerts in and around Leicestershire.
