The Flagrante Choir was originally formed in 2016 as a choir of the South West London Bench magistrates. However, we now welcome members from the entire local community.
We are fortunate to have Eamonn O’Dwyer as our Musical Director. He instructs and encourages us and arranges most of our fantastic music.
Our rehearsals occur every Tuesday from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm at the Royal Mid-Surrey Golf Club in Old Deer Park at Twickenham Road, TW9 2SB. We have three terms each year, each lasting around 12 weeks.
We typically arrange two concerts annually. 2017 we hosted a 'pop-up' event at Kings Cross Station.
