Weddings and other functions
Hertfordshire Chorus often provides a suitably-sized choir to add the final touch to weddings, anniversaries, and corporate events. Hertfordshire Chorus wedding choir (usually around 20 singers) provides a high quality musical background for the big day. We generally sing three hymns (selected by the couple in discussion with the minister), plus an anthem during the signing of the register. Our extensive repertoire includes:

Ave Verum Corpus Mozart
Ave Maria Bach/Gounod
Panis Angelicus Franck
A Gaelic Blessing Rutter
Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring Bach
Locus Iste Bruckner
Cantique de Jean Racine Fauré
Gloria Vivaldi
My Spirit Sang All Day Finzi
Ubi Caritas Duruflé

The choice of music may depend on the organist to be used. We are happy to discuss a more extensive or ambitious programme of music or a larger number of singers.
