Epiphoni won two awards in Derry this October - early music award and 2nd place
The Epiphoni Consort occupy a rung near the top of the choral ladder, and are well directed by Tim Reader. Balance, intonation, clarity are so strong here, one almost takes all that for granted.

Epiphoni aspires to be the UK’s leading non-professional choir
Formed in 2014, the choir has developed into a uniquely adventurous and chameleonic ensemble – by turns a chamber choir, symphonic chorus, solo voice ensemble – performing around 12-15 concerts, services, residentials, musical plays, competitions, and private functions a year in London and beyond.
Most recently the choir was awarded second place at the City of Derry International Choir Festival and a special award for “Outstanding Performance of a Piece written before 1750”.
The choir has released 3 CDs on Delphian Records and in 2018 received a a 5-star review from the Arts Desk for a performance they described as “up there with the best professional choirs”.
Performed with complete commitment, it rightly earned a standing ovation … Epiphoni is up there with the best professional choirs
The Arts Desk, Dec 2018
Epiphoni Consort dealt with the exposed choral writing exceptionally well ... otherworldly and robust in equal measure.

I rate my audience experiences based on whether it makes me want to be up there making music with the performers. I give you an emphatic yes
Johannes Roose, Conductor, Melbourne Sinfonia
It's so obvious right from the minute you start singing that you have a passion for choral singing, and excellence in choral singing. It's a very vibrant sound.
Paul Phoenix, PurpleVocals / The King's Singers
...the choir's interpretation of Strauss's Deutsche Motette was finer than the BBC Singers’ Proms performance..
