The St Andrews Madrigal Group is a small choral ensemble made up of 16 singers which was founded in 1946, and is entirely student-run. The choir holds multiple concerts each semester during term in which they sing a wide range of repertoire, from madrigals to contemporary choral works. Alongside concerts in St Andrews, the group regularly tours around Europe and across the UK. Our most recent European tour was to Berlin, where they performed at the Berlin Cathedral, and on its most recent UK tour the choir performed at venues such as HM Chapel Royal at Hampton Court, Jesus College Chapel, Oxford and Sherborne Abbey in Dorset.
As well as formal concerts, the choir has also sung at key events in the university calendar, such as the Gaudie Pier Walk, the Rector’s Installation and the University Holocaust Memorial Service.
The group is organised and led by its committee, the members of which are elected each year by all members of the choir. The committee organises all events, socials and tours.
