WHO SINGS IN OUR WORKSHOPS?Our choral workshops 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.
We are excited to be launching our first Platinum Choral Workshop in the Malverns and booking is currently open for singers in all voice parts. |

He read Music at the University of Cambridge and sang in the world famous King's College Choir as a countertenor. In addition to directing Platinum Consort, Scott is also the Director of Choristers at Willington Prep School, and works as a vocal consultant with groups such as the Scottish Chamber Choir, Exeter Festival Chorus and St Albans Choral Society. He has also guest conducted the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. Scott continues to inspire and encourage singers of all ages, including the thousands of viewers of his YouTube channel, Sing with Scott. One singer described his participation in a session with Scott as “the most amazing musical experience of my life!".
