Platinum Consort was founded by Scott Inglis-Kidger and Claire Jaggers in 2005.  The consort specialises in bringing vibrancy to early music, as well as breathing life into newly commissioned pieces. Originating at the University of Cambridge, the consort attracted singers from the renowned choirs of St John's, Jesus, Trinity and King's Colleges. Now a professional vocal octet, Platinum Consort boasts some of the best young singers in London.  They have an affinity with the music of composer Richard Bates and recently premiered his Tenebrae Responsories.

Platinum also runs a Boys' Choir, which aims to be one of the best of its kind in the UK. In addition to this our Choral Workshops provide a wealth of opportunities for singers who wish to explore glorious repertoire in smaller groups.

Scott Inglis-Kidger is a conductor, vocal coach and singing teacher based in London. He is Founder and Director of Platinum Consort and  Director of Music for  Thomas's Choral Society. He read Music at the University of Cambridge, where he sang as a countertenor in the world famous King's College Choir. In addition to conducting, Scott directs many workshops around the country and is much in demand as a vocal coach for individuals and groups, and as an early music specialist. He was previously Director of Music at Willington Independent Preparatory School and Thomas's Preparatory School, Battersea, establishing highly regarded liturgical choirs in both schools.
