The G6 Editions library grows 🎼 Joseph has been busy putting the finishing touches to the newest additions to G6 Editions - our online collection of choral sheet music. Explore the collection: www.thegesualdosix.co.uk/editions/

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 🇺🇸

🚀 To polyphony and beyond 🚀 We’re on a visit to the @SpaceCenter in Houston to plot our first concert in space 👀 We’re making the most of an afternoon off before our concert at St Luke’s United Methodist Church tomorrow!

A postcard from NYC 🇺🇸 We’ve had a wonderful start to our US tour with three concerts across the Northeast! Today we’re on the move for the next leg of our tour, which takes us to Memphis, TN, before three concerts in Texas — Houston, Austin and Dallas. www.thegesualdosix.co.uk/concerts/

USA Tour No. 3 for 2025 🇺🇸 This time next week we’ll be in New York for the first of 12 concerts across the States! We’re looking forward to catching up with old friends making new ones in two states that are firsts for us! www.thegesualdosix.co.uk/concerts/

My review for @arcanadotfm.bsky.social of Thursday’s terrific lunchtime concert by @thegesualdosix.bsky.social & Matilda Lloyd at @wigmore-hall.org.uk promoting fabulous new album ‘Radiant Dawn’ covering over 800 years of music from Hildegard of Bingen to Roxanna Panufnik. arcana.fm/2025/10/04/g...

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.

A packed-out Wigmore Hall! It was a treat to be back at Wigmore Hall this afternoon to perform our Radiant Dawn programme with Matilda Lloyd. Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate the release of our latest album! 💿

We performed FOUR concerts in one day on a tour of Cambridgeshire villages this weekend. From the early Renaissance, with works by Du Fay and Binchois in Girton and Fulbourn, through to Palestrina in Fen Ditton, culminating with music by our namesake in Grantchester.

Tomorrow we return ‘home’ for a four-concert tour of Cambridgeshire’s beautiful villages including Girton, Fulbourn, Fen Ditton and Grantchester. We’ll be sharing madrigals by Italian masters Palestrina and Gesualdo, alongside music by their English and European predecessors!

Cathedral Singing Day ✅ We had a wonderful time at “Lichfield for Singing” over the weekend. It’s a new initiative we’ve launched alongside the cathedral to share our love for singing with communities, and hope to take this all around the country.

New season, new programme ✅ Yesterday we premiered our newest programme, “The English in Europe” – a collection of works exploring the cross-fertilisation of musical ideas in 15th and 16th-century Europe. It was our first time in Thornbury, a pretty town outside of Bristol.

Too early for Halloween? 👻 Yesterday we filmed the trailer for our latest immersive theatre project. Deep underneath St Martin-in-the-Fields in London we found a suitably spooky spot to film a few moments from ‘Death of Gesualdo’. It premieres at SMITF in January and in NYC in Feb.

🎶Preparing for the season ahead! We spent yesterday putting the finishes touches to a new programme for the 2025/26 season. We’ll be debuting “The English in Europe” in Thornbury near Bristol on Friday. 🎙️The microphones made an appearance as we recorded a little teaser for a new project 👀

And we’re live! 🎙️✨ It was such a joy to be back in the In Tune studio, chatting (and singing!) all things Radiant Dawn with Katie Derham. 👀 Can you spot what we managed to sneak into the studio with us?

Announcing: G6 Editions After over 500 concerts using our own editions, we've developed a style that's beautifully presented, well-researched and ready for performance! 🎶 Now, we're thrilled to share them with you! 🎉 www.thegesualdosix.co.uk/editions/

Action shot! 📸 This year we’ve performed all over France, with concerts from Toulouse to Paris. We rounded off our 2025 in France with our tenth concert of the year in Rouen last week 🇫🇷

Magnifique église! We’re in the beautiful city of Rouen, home to many medieval churches and cathedrals. This is Abbatiale Saint-Ouen where we spent some time enjoying its magnificent acoustic. Keep your eyes peeled for lots of content from this stunning building in the coming weeks. 👀

✨ The reviews are in… ✨ We’re thrilled by the response to “Radiant Dawn”, our latest album with the wonderful trumpeter Matilda Lloyd. This collaboration has been seven years in the making, and it means so much to see it receive such glowing reviews, including this highlight from BBC Record Review

Scaling the heights! 🏔️ We loved our stint in the mountains earlier this month. On a free morning we climbed one of the mighty mountains – a little adventure to balance the music-making! 🎶✨ Later this week we’ll be in Rouen for a performance of ‘Mirror of Time’.

Anchors away ⛵️ We’re taking the scenic route to Ireland. After 10 wonderful performances of Secret Byrd in the US last month, we can’t wait to dust off the partbooks for four shows at the Kilkenny International Festival this week 🇮🇪

🏔️ French Alps Tour, Summer 2025 We’re back home after a magical five-date Mirror of Time tour through five beautiful alpine towns and villages. You can read all about our adventures over on Patreon in Alasdair’s latest blog 📝

Mid-concert snaps 📸 Over the past few days, we’ve been singing from the mountaintops across the French Alps — five concerts in five truly breathtaking settings. These moments were captured during our “Mirror of Time” concert in Albertville.

Post-concert smiles 😃 We’re having a wonderful time singing around the French Alps. We’re touring ‘Mirror of Time’, a programme of Gesualdo’s musical inspirations from Northern Italy 🇮🇹 Tomorrow we’ll be in Valloire for our fifth concert of this Alps tour before home time! Phew.

Out today! 💿 Radiant Dawn, our collaborative album with trumpeter Matilda Lloyd, is available to buy and stream today! 🎧 Since 2018 we’ve worked with Matilda Lloyd to bring together an ethereal combination of trumpet and voices with performances around the UK and Europe.

A concert with a view 🏔️ One of the many joys of being a musician is the amazing places that it takes you. After a wonderful fortnight performing across North America, we’re now in the French Alps 🇫🇷 Tonight we’re singing in the church behind us, here in Valloire.

Signing off from tour in style 🌅 The sun has set on another unforgettable tour of North America - 15 concerts, 6 states, 2 countries, and countless memories. We saw some incredible places along the way, but few could rival the beauty of Chautauqua Lake, New York.

Thank you, Canada! 🇨🇦 We rounded off our North American tour with a wonderful afternoon concert in Ottawa. It was our third visit to Canada’s capital city, and it was lovely to return to the fantastic concert space at Carleton.

First concert in Canada 🇨🇦 We’re back in Canada for the first time since 2023 and made the group’s third visit to Elora. Our wonderful hosts Elizabeth & Stan and Susan made our return feel like a home away from home.

That’s a wrap on Secret Byrd! We’ve been touring this immersive vigil by candlelight across the states for the past week. Over the past week, we’ve given ten magical performances in LA, San Francisco, and, most recently, in Chicago with the Second City Musick & ViolMedium 🎻

Suited ’n’ booted Here we are in the magnificent Grace Cathedral in San Francisco. Over the past five days, we’ve sung Byrd’s magisterial five-part Mass in eight performances of Secret Byrd. It’s a privilege to bring this music to life and continue discovering its emotional riches.

Spot the intruder… 🤔 We loved working with Tesserae Baroque in Los Angeles earlier this week. We’ve now given six of our ten performances of Secret Byrd in the USA this summer, with four more in Chicago to go. Featuring Alasdair during rehearsals for “Ye sacred muses” by William Byrd. 🎻

Secret Byrd is back 🕯️ It’s always a special moment dusting off the partbooks and donning the Renaissance outfits for Secret Byrd. We kicked off this 10-concert run of immersive performances earlier this week in LA, joined by Tesserae Baroque.

A concert in the woods 🌳 Last night’s performance of Wishing Tree in Mt Gretna, PA was magical. Nestled deep in the forest, The Playhouse — a wooden theatre with sweeping openings into the trees — made for a special setting.

That’s some hall! We kicked off our USA & Canada tour in some style with a concert in the Great Hall of The Breakers — the former Vanderbilt mansion in Newport, Rhode Island. Out its grand windows, the sun was setting over the Atlantic. The perfect spot for our ‘Fading’ programme, we think!

Touchdown in America 🇺🇸 
We’ve arrived in beautiful Newport, RI and are soaking up the sunshine before our first concert! A wander along the harbour and a good coffee have helped beat the jet lag ahead of tonight’s performance at The Breakers — a stunning 19th-century mansion overlooking the coast 🌊

🎶 World premiere 🌍 It was a real joy to perform “Nothing gold can stay”, a new work by Áine Mallon, at Cheltenham Music Festival yesterday. Composed as a response to “Faire is the rose” by Orlando Gibbons, Áine’s piece received its premiere in a programme celebrating music for voices and viol.

Getting the team back together! 🎺 It was a joy to reunite with Matilda Lloyd for performances of Radiant Dawn in Swanage and Thaxted over the past few days. Our album with Matilda - ‘Radiant Dawn’ - is out next month! 💿

We’re incredibly proud of Owain for his appointment as Chief Conductor of the BBC Singers. To those wondering, Owain will continue to direct G6, and we’re excited for lots of music-making and new adventures ahead! 🎶

Thank you Sweden 🇸🇪 We had a wonderful weekend performing in two of the most beautiful Swedish churches. Coming up is a week of collaborations, with concerts alongside trumpeter Matilda Lloyd in Thaxted and Swanage before we join forces with the viols of Chelys for a concert of Gibbons! 🎺 🎻

The British countryside was at its best last week for our debut at Stour Music Festival. There was sunshine, song, and a plentiful pre-concert buffet! This weekend we’re off to Sweden for concerts in Skara and Uppsala, before returning to the UK for a week of performances.

‼️ New collab incoming ‼️ We’ve just had our first rehearsal with the brilliant Chelys Consort of Viols! 🎻🎶 To mark 400 years since the death of Orlando Gibbons, we’re joining forces for a special performance at the Cheltenham Music Festival next Sunday – 6 July.

👶 Our newest member? Sam, who’s joined us while Guy is on paternity leave, brought along a very special guest to our concert in Burford earlier this week. She showed early signs of musical promise by sitting through the entire performance without making a peep 👼

Back in Brizzle! 🚂 We’re singing at the Clifton International Festival of Music this evening, giving our first concert at Clifton Cathedral.

Team selfie! 📸 It’s wonderful to welcome Sam Mitchell back into the fold for the first time since he left the group in 2023. Sam comes in to bolster the team as Guy begins his paternity leave. We’re wishing Guy and his partner all the best as we wait for news… 👶
