Charms and Chants is a community choir based in Edinburgh,

open to all who loves to sing — no auditions, no experience needed. We sing music from films, folk traditions, contemporary choral pieces, and a few surprises too.

We’re also open to collaborations and performances — feel free to get in touch if you’d like to invite us to sing at your event.

We usually perform with piano or a cappella and can adjust our set to suit your event.

What we sing

We love variety — our recent concerts have included:

  • Vois sur ton chemin from Les Choristes
  • City of Stars from La La Land
  • The Lord is My Shepherd by Howard Goodall
  • For The Beauty of The Earth by John Rutter

Our music is chosen with care — some pieces soft and reflective, others vibrant and energetic — always with space for storytelling and connection.
