Welcome.

The 'Jubes' present 3-4 public concerts a year featuring a wide range of international and New Zealand choral music, and we are well-known for our innovative programming and consistently high standard.

In October, we celebrated 50 years of composition by current Jubilate Singers conductor, Philip Norman, with ‘Wit and Wisdom’ at The Piano. This concert, which also marked the publication of Philip's latest book, A Complete Absence of WIT & WISDOM, was recorded by SOUNZ. The choir was accompanied by Jeremy Woodside (piano), Amandine Guerin (violin) & Roger Buckton (flute).
'Wit and Wisdom' was a fitting tribute to Philip's distinguished career and was thoroughly enjoyed by the choir and by our audience! View photographs from the concert on our Gallery page.
The choir is currently busy preparing for our next concert, 'Sir Arthur Sullivan: A Musical Portrait,' coming up on February 25th, 2023, at The Piano. We'll be joined by the Risingholme Orchestra on an entertaining musical journey, featuring a range of perennial favourites.
