  • Ulster Youth Choir: e-mail only: contact the choir. 70-strong SATB, meeting annually for a summer residential course and concert tour. The course includes singing lessons and workshops with professional vocal coaches.

  • Umoga Gospel Choir, University of Leicester The Umoja Gospel Choir, formed in 1995, combines the vibrant energy of African music and movement with the sounds of traditional and contemporary a capella gospel.  Umoja, meaning ‘unity’ in Kiswahli, welcomes everyone of all ethnic backgrounds and beliefs.  The group performs regularly at venues ranging from those local to the University to further afield.

  • University College London Chamber Choir  UCLCC is a young, fun-luvin' choir of around 40 voices drawn from UCL. It combines musical excellence with a dynamic camaraderie which lures singers back year after year.

  • University College London Symphony Chorus The main singing group, however, is the symphony chorus, which is a non-auditioned group, so the size can vary hugely from year to year. As it is not necessary to audition, there is a huge spread of experience, from beginners to those who have been singing all their lives. The results, however are always excellent. In term one, typically the symphony chorus will sing in two concerts, accompanied by the UCL Music Society Symphony orchestra. In term two, the group makes up the chorus for the Opera, which is the main focus of the music society.

  • University of Birmingham Chamber Choir 40-60 members from the University and Birmingham who sing anything from Duruflé to African chants, with occasional foreign tours

  • University of Essex Choir The University of Essex Choir was founded in 1977 and numbers about 150 singers.  Its membership is drawn from staff and students of the University and from the local community.  The University is an international community with a relatively high proportion of overseas students and many of the students in the choir are from overseas.

  • University of Leicester Singers and Choral Society The Singers is a chamber choir for singers with some reasonable ability; the Choral Society is open to anyone who enjoys singing - there is no audition

  • University of London Chamber Choir  We are a dynamic and enthusiastic choir of some 24 singers, formed of students and former students from colleges all over London - a diverse and international ensemble. We aim to perform to a high standard a varied repertoire of music both sacred and secular, from Palestrina and Gibbons to Poulenc and Billy Joel.

  • University of London Church Choir Graduates and students singing church services where either there is no regular choir, or the regular choir is unable to perform. No formal audition

  • University of Sheffield Singers' Society Attached to the university, but is a lively group also open to non-students of any age

  • University of Surrey Chamber Choir

  • University of Warwick Chamber Choir An auditioned, mixed-voice choir of around 70 singers

  • University of Warwick Chamber Chorus

  • Uxbridge Choral Society, Middlesex Amateur choral society of about 80 voices, singing mainly classical repertoire. We give two principal concerts every year, in the spring and the autumn. We also have a Carol Concert in December and a Summer Concert in July, with the later concert tending to be lighter in tone.
