Julian Parkin-Haig, Director
Picture
Julian began his music career as a chorister in Melbourne and a choral scholar at Trinity College, Melbourne University. After spending a year as choral scholar at Winchester Cathedral, he became a vicar choral at Wells Cathedral. Returning to Australia, he sang with the choirs of St James’s, King Street, Sydney and Cantillation before forming and directing the parish choir of St Bartholomew’s in Melbourne. Resident in England since 2006, he has sung regularly with the choirs of Norwich and Guildford Cathedrals, and New College and Magdalen College Chapel Choirs in Oxford.

He has directed choirs for over thirty years and besides directing the St Giles Consort and  the Alleyn Singers, he sings with and regularly directs St Peter’s Choir, Didcot. During his career, he has sung under Peter Godfrey, Christopher Dearnley, David Hill, Bill Ives and Edward Higginbottom and is delighted to be able to inspire singers in the great English choral tradition.


The Singers
The St Giles Consort was founded in 2016. by Julian Parkin-Haig and  Cathy Langdale (Director of Music at the Parish Church in Chalfont St Giles)

The group is made up of experienced  choral singers who either live in Buckinghamshire or have a strong connection to the county or to the  village of Chalfont St Giles where they rehearse and often perform.

We would be interested to hear from local singers who would like to find out more about what we do.  For a typical concert, rehearsals take place during the day on the two Saturdays leading up to each concert.   Please contact Cathy Langdale
