About Us

The Esterhazy Singers is an amateur choir of about 50 people that aims at professional standards. We also support music students by providing them bursaries to sing with us and learn to lead an experienced choir. Based in the City of London at St. Margaret Pattens Church, the choir is named after Haydn’s patrons, the Princes Nicholas and Paul Anton Esterhazy.

Join Us!

The Esterhazy Singers are always on the lookout for enthusiastic choristers to join us. We are an amateur choir that maintains a high musical standard and put on public performances 4 or 5 times each year. We rehearse Tuesday evenings at 19:00 to 21:30 at St. Margaret Pattens Church in the City near Monument tube station. If you’re a singer who is looking to sing some challenging repertoire in a fun social environment then we want you!

Choral Scholar Program

Since 2014, the Esterhazy Singers has offered a scholarship scheme to young singers training to become professional musicians. A scholarship gives singers a chance to practise with us as soloists and occasionally to take part of a rehearsal as a conductor.

So far the scholarships have been funded by donations from choir members. We provide 4 bursaries a year, one in each of the SATB voices. Please support our activities by getting in touch to make a donation and by attending our concerts.
