Taplow Youth Choir have been able to take part in G Gabriel's Roar Projects , singing major oratorios in cathedrals across the UK under the direction of Paul Mcreesh. Taplow Youth Choir is happy to be able to sing for audiences in Finland and Estonia this summer.

Taplow Youth Choir’s members are aged 13-19 from over twenty schools in the Thames Valley and South-Buckinghamshire. Many of them play a musical instrument at an advanced level.

The choir sings Evensong every year at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle and recently performed there in a concert dedicated to the work of composer John Rutter. The young singers of the choir worked with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and The Bach Choir under the baton of John Rutter. In May, Taplow Choir was invited to perform at the opening of the education forum organized for education ministers of the countries of the world in Westminster.
