You know what they say, it’s always sunny in Northern Ireland… ☀️

We left a grey London behind for a radiant Portaferry, where last night we performed at the Portico of the Ards. Our programme of “Passion & Polyphony” was recorded for future broadcast on BBC Radio 3!

Collab concerts ❤️

It was a treat to join forces again with fabulous cellist Josephine Knight in Bradford-upon-Avon last weekend. Our previous outing together was in London back in November, so it was wonderful to bring this programme of Dowland, Schubert, Monteverdi and more to Wiltshire.

Singing in America’s biggest Cathedral!

We had the best time performing in this enormous building. We were at Cathedral of St John the Divine for the US premiere of ‘Death of Gesualdo’. It was a night to remember for us: a sold-out show in one of the most extraordinary acoustics on the planet.

Start spreading the news…

We’re in New York for two very exciting projects: an NYU panel tonight, and tomorrow’s US premiere of ‘Death of Gesualdo’.

It’ll be a return to St John the Divine for us tomorrow evening the biggest Anglican cathedral in the world. And it’s a sell-out!

Ohhh we’re half way there! 🇺🇸

So far we’ve spent a week in California and we’re onto our East Coast leg of the tour. Here we are after a concert in The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Savannah. We’re sad to be leaving so soon after a wonderful couple of days in this new city for the group.

Enjoying our time in California! 🌞

We’ve been soaking up the winter sun while performing up the coast this week. Tonight we’re in Pacific Palisades for the final stop of this West Coast leg before heading east.

Hello from California! ☀️

We have all arrived safely in San Diego, where a morning stroll by the beach is helping us shake off the jet lag.

Tomorrow we begin with a concert overlooking the crashing waves. We hope the sea lions enjoy a little Renaissance polyphony 🦭

Ticking off another English cathedral!

Last week we gave our first concert in the magnificent Lichfield Cathedral. Over recent years we've built a strong relationship with the cathedral, which hosted the first of our Choral Singing Days initiatives with The G6 Charity.

We’re looking forward to returning to the States for eight concerts: from California to New York, with plenty of stops in between.

This will be our tenth USA tour! Over the years we’ve made so many wonderful friends along the way. If we’re performing near you, we’d love to see you there.

On this day 📸

This time last year we held the first of our Choral Singing Days, a charitable initiative. Working with such wonderful young singers in Lichfield Cathedral marked the beginning of an ongoing partnership and, next week, we’ll be giving a concert in this magnificent building.

It’s the start of 2026, and the G6 team have been busy mapping out the year ahead. There’s plenty to look forward to, with two tours of the States, a return to Australia, and lots of exciting projects in between.

It’s always special to perform in London, our hometown, with so many of our longest-standing supporters and oldest friends and family able to join us. Last night we performed to a full house at Sinfonia Smith Square, a venue where we’ve been singing since we were Young Artists back in 2015.

Here we are after a wonderful Christmas concert in Luxembourg last night. Behind us are posters of the many fantastic musicians that have performed at Cube 521 in Clervaux - we spotted several familiar faces from the choral world and beyond!

Next stop: Helsinki 🇫🇮

We’re well and truly in the Christmas spirit after yesterday’s carol service with Pancreatic Cancer UK. It’s a cause close to our hearts and is always a highlight of our festive calendar 🎄

We continue the festivities with concerts in Luxembourg this Friday and Helsinki on Sunday!

This week, we recorded with composer Michael Price, best known for his work on award-winning TV and film scores, including the BBC’s Sherlock.

We were recording for his new project “The Seasons”, in which different ensembles will bring each season to life through his music.

Tomorrow we premiere a brand-new programme for voice and cello: a musical journey inspired by nightfall. Together with Josephine Knight, we travel through the centuries, exploring how composers have drawn inspiration from the mysterious hours of darkness 🌌

Tomorrow at St Martin-in-the-Fields.

And we’re home…

After a wonderful three weeks on the road, we’ve made it back to London to spend some time with loved ones before we get going again.

We’re taking a few days to relax at home before heading back on the road next week, this time to Germany! 🇩🇪

Singing in the desert 🌵

We’ve been soaking up some November sunshine in Phoenix for the final weekend of our US tour! Here we are on stage at the Camelback Bible Church, nestled in the shadow of Camelback Mountain, where last night we performed music by Palestrina and Gesualdo.

🙌 Inspired by these young musicians 🙌

We had the most wonderful time collaborating with the talented singers of the Northern Kentucky University Chamber Choir, culminating last night in a truly magical concert.

We’ve had a lovely morning contributing to the morning services here at the Park Cities Presbyterian Church. Tonight we’ll be singing again in this beautiful space, performing our ‘Lux Aeterna’ programme.

This is our last concert in Texas for the year, but we look forward to returning in 2026 🇺🇸

A postcard from NYC 🇺🇸

We’ve had a wonderful start to our US tour with three concerts across the Northeast!

Our first concert in Birmingham!

For a group that began in Cambridge, it feels improbable that we’d have performed in Birmingham, Alabama before Birmingham, UK. Yesterday, we finally put that right with a wonderful concert at the University of Birmingham.
