2022
Baltics to Broomsticks
A wonderful programme of music from the world over, but with a particular focus on Northern Europe and the Baltics.
With sparkling pieces from Estonia, Sweden, Finland, and Iceland, the programme featured an eclectic selection of folk songs, choral arrangements, pop hits and seasonal carols.
Metamorphoses
From butterflies to doves to ducklings, this concert’s theme examines themes of transformation, and the nature of change.
As per LIC tradition these themes are explored through a kaleidoscope genres such as madrigals, pop, jazz and folk.
From Darkness to Light
St John the Baptist Church – February 2022
Our first concert after two long pandemic years. This was an evening for reflection, exploring the juxtaposition between darkness and light during these trying times.
The first half was an immersion in the beauty and dangers of the night, prayers for protection and the mourning of those lost. The second half looks forward to brighter times, from South American hymns and contemporary film music, through to pop songs from Adele and the Beatles… among others.

LIC turns 5 Anniversary Concert
Gresham Centre- December 2018
London International Choir is 5 years old – a good reason to celebrate! Our showcase brought you the best of LIC: linguistic fun, crunchy chords, sky-high melodies, pumping bass-lines and cheesy key changes. From Classical to Bollywood, from Venezuela to the icy steppes of Russia, from the Middle Ages to the 21st Century, if it rocks, hums, raps, glides, elides or soars, we sing it.
Summer Breeze
Gresham Centre – June 2018
Mix hot Cuban sauce with cool Russian salt, add a dash of Indian spice, beat in some Mozart, rap it in a rosy kiss, and you’re halfway to enjoying our summery musical cocktail, the Summer Breeze. It did, indeed, make people feel fine!

Paul Devlin – Caritas Christi Urget Nos
Trad, arr. Moses J Hogan – Elijah Rock

Winter Rhapsody
Gresham Centre – December 2017
Last year’s winter concerts were rhapsodies of joy, celebration, reflection and sheer craziness – rhapsodies comprising music from A(rgentinian tango) to Z(ulu spirituals), taking in French jazz, American classical and Bollywood along the way. A musically Bohemian Christmas? You got it.
