Let’s sing more in ’24!

Although Helen no longer directs Glorious Chorus she is still writing new music. She showcases new pieces at her workshops and voice camps, sometimes writing to commission. All of Helen’s music for choirs is available on the Scores page of this website. Helen’s song ‘Awaken’, part of her ‘Sun Cycle’ of seasonal songs, is a celebration of spring and was featured at Sing For Water in London and has been a favourite with her choirs. You can hear it by clicking the audio player at the right hand side of this page.

One World – choral theatre for our time


Line Up! from the One World show at Conway Hall, London in 2019.

After the success of One World London, Helen had hoped to bring the show to the SouthWest. Unfortunately the scheduled time to perform this clashed with the pandemic and the project had to be cancelled.
