London Oratorio

  • Royal Festival Hall Belvedere Road London, England, SE1 8XX United Kingdom (map)

Feel the spark of a city like no other, rich with diverse languages and musical cultures. A love letter to the capital, this epic choral work soars with the voices of hundreds from dozens of the city’s greatest choirs – and is brought to a spectacular close by multi-hyphenate musician Jacob Collier.

Created in collaboration with composer and performer Kieran Brunt, London Oratorio is a monumental work rooted in Devlin’s experience of being a Londoner. It’s a powerful celebration of diversity, unity and the shared experience of living together in the city.

Over 300 languages are spoken in London, making it one of the most linguistically diverse cities in the world.London Oratorio brings together these languages, musical cultures and voices in a piece of belonging and collective identity, inviting you to feel part of something larger. Biraj joins The Third Culture Collective as one of the participating choirs in this unique one of a kind event.

The participating choirs represent many of the city’s language and music traditions, from Balkan and Gospel to South African and Afro-Cuban, Bulgarian, Arabic and Nordic traditions. Hear choral compositions developed with Devlin’s long-term collaborators Polyphonia and a number of artistic co-authors.
