About
London Voices is a celebrated classical choral ensemble originating from the vibrant London music scene. Founded and directed by Terry Edwards, who also serves as the Chorus Master of the Royal Opera House, the group has established itself as a versatile and distinguished presence in the recording world. London Voices is renowned for its contributions to opera recordings, collaborating with luminaries such as Luciano Pavarotti and Plácido Domingo. Their repertoire spans from traditional opera to avant-garde compositions and soundtracks for iconic films like Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.
How to Sound Like London Voices
London Voices' sound is characterized by its rich, resonant choral textures, expertly blending the voices to create a harmonious and enveloping auditory experience. Their performances often emphasize clarity and precision, essential for capturing the emotional depth of classical and operatic works. While the ensemble primarily relies on the natural acoustic qualities of their voices, the occasional use of grand pianos like the Steinway & Sons Model D Concert Grand Piano enhances their recordings with a robust and dynamic foundation. This blend of vocal excellence and instrumental support allows London Voices to deliver performances that are both emotionally powerful and technically immaculate.
