Described by BBC Radio 3 as a “vocal supergroup”, Platinum Consort brings vibrancy to early music and breathes life into modern, early-inspired compositions, including those of former Composer-in-Residence, Richard Bates. Originating at the University of Cambridge in 2005, founders Scott Inglis-Kidger and Claire Daffern appointed singers from the renowned college choirs – King's, Trinity, Clare, Caius and St John's. The group now boasts the best professional consort singers in the business. Concert highlights include Bach’s Christmas Oratorio with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Handel’s Messiah with the Hanover Band, the Holy Trinity Sloane Square concert residency, and a number of appearances at Kings Place as part of their Unwrapped concept.
