Reactions to our performance of Bach St John Passion on 12th April 2025:
"The choir is as good as, if not better than, any London choir I've sung with" - Helena Moore, soprano soloist "We're sitting here, the three of us, discussing with awe the absolute pleasure of listening to the Oakfield Choir this evening. The talent, beauty and sheer hard work was apparent in buckets - all we can say is thank you!” “Brilliant performance last evening. We both loved it. We talked about several moments when we were so wrapped up in the music that we felt out of time. The chorus had great diverse moments of powerful 'mob' singing contrasting with beautiful quiet contemplative segments." Praise from audience members for our Mozart concert with Midsomer Choral Society on 13th May 2023:
"Absolutely superb and as good as anything you would hear in London, and such a reasonable price". "An outstanding performance from the joint forces of Oakfield [Choir] and Midsomer [Choral Society]. Well worth the trip from London". Praise for Brahms Requiem
on 21st May 2016: "So enjoyed the performance on Saturday night... the standard of the choir was astounding and two soloists as well, what a treat!" - Sabine Abraham |
