Scott Inglis-Kidger

​Once told he couldn't sing, but now hailed by Classic FM as a “rising star of the choral world", Scott Inglis-Kidger is renowned for his passion and dedication as a conductor, vocal coach and early music specialist. He read Music at the University of Cambridge and sang in the world famous King's College Choir as a countertenor. He is the founder and director of Platinum Consort and has worked as a vocal consultant with groups such as the Scottish Chamber Choir, Exeter Festival Chorus and St Albans Choral Society. Scott has guest conducted the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment and The Hanover Band. 2023 saw the launch of his new Baroque orchestra, Platinum 415.  Cutting his teeth straight out of Cambridge as a Director of Music and Master of Choristers in two London prep schools, Scott continues to inspire and encourage singers of all ages. One singer described his participation in a session with Scott as “the most amazing musical experience of my life!". With bespoke workshops sold out months in advance and performances described as “pristine” and “intimate” (BBC Music Magazine), Scott is making a significant impact on the world of choral music.​

Helpful information and FAQs

HOW DOES THE BALLOT WORK?

Due to the popularity of Early Nights, booking is by ballot. Please apply before the end of Thursday 28th August. Workshops will be allocated shortly after the closing date to ensure a good balance of voices. You will be reimbursed and added to the waiting list for any workshops you are not allocated. In the unlikely event that there are spaces left over, these will go on general sale.

WHO SINGS AT EARLY NIGHTS?

Early Nights are for those of you who love singing polyphony and are comfortable in a chamber-sized group. Our choral workshops in general are designed to challenge and stimulate experienced choral singers. We work quickly with only limited note-bashing, and we keep the groups fairly small. We therefore expect you to prepare music in advance or be a proficient sight-reader. Our goal is to enable every one of you to love your voice, through our welcoming atmosphere and our community of like-minded singers.

ARE THESE AVAILABLE ONLINE TOO?
