Exeter Philharmonic Choir is a renowned classical music artist that has been captivating audiences with their exceptional performances for over 170 years. The choir was founded in 1846 by a group of music enthusiasts who wanted to create a platform for choral music in Exeter, a city in the southwest of England. Since then, the choir has grown in size and reputation, becoming one of the most respected choral groups in the country. The early years of the Exeter Philharmonic Choir were marked by a series of successful performances that showcased the group's talent and dedication to choral music. The choir's first major performance was in 1847, when they performed Handel's Messiah to a packed audience at the Exeter Guildhall. The performance was a resounding success, and it set the tone for the choir's future performances. Over the years, the Exeter Philharmonic Choir has performed a wide range of choral works, from classical masterpieces to contemporary compositions. The choir has collaborated with some of the most renowned conductors and soloists in the world, including Sir Simon Rattle, Sir John Eliot Gardiner, and Dame Emma Kirkby. These collaborations have helped to cement the choir's reputation as a world-class choral group. One of the highlights of the Exeter Philharmonic Choir's career was their performance of Verdi's Requiem in 2013. The performance, which took place at Exeter Cathedral, was a tribute to the victims of the 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The choir was joined by the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and a group of soloists, including soprano Elizabeth Watts and bass-baritone David Soar. The performance was a huge success, with the choir receiving a standing ovation from the audience. In addition to their performances, the Exeter Philharmonic Choir has also been recognized for their contributions to choral music.
