In 2023, we celebrated our 45th anniversary. We are now full of energy again and continuing with a series of new concerts. In the spring of 2025, another Passion concert was on the programme, and just before the summer, the usual afternoon concert in the Koningkerk. In a few weeks, we will be giving a combined concert with the Con Passione Chamber Choir from Leiden. We will also be travelling to Rotterdam for a Festival of Lessons and Carols in the beautiful Oude Kerk in Charlois. Be sure to add the upcoming concerts to your diary!
