The Fourth Choir

"The Fourth Choir is a London-based LGBT+ chamber choir founded in 2013, known for blending traditional choral craftsmanship with a bold, contemporary spirit. This vibrant ensemble specializes in performing modern works, particularly by LGBTQ+ composers and allies, while also exploring lesser-known gems from across the choral spectrum. Their performances often showcase a mix of commissions, collaborations, and fresh arrangements, as heard in releases like *Slow Fresh Fount* and *Stuart Beatch: I Am Like Many* – tracks that highlight their knack for balancing emotional depth with crisp vocal precision.

With a playful yet polished approach, the choir champions inclusive storytelling through music, as seen in releases such as *Songs of Ourselves* and *Three Years*, which often feature themes of identity, love, and resilience. They’ve become a lively fixture in the UK choral scene, performing at venues like St. Paul’s Cathedral and LGBT History Month events, while their recordings – including haunting renditions like *Ríu Ríu Chíu* and *O Nata Lux* – reveal their flair for breathing new life into both ancient and modern texts. A true musical safe space, The Fourth Choir celebrates diversity one harmony at a time."
