Full Choir

Performing with the full choir alongside partners, presenters, and organisers is an essential part of OD’s artistic life. We embrace new challenges and prepare meticulously to deliver unforgettable musical experiences for every audience.

OD can appear exactly as you might imagine—with gentlemen in white tie performing the great classics of the male choral tradition. But we also thrive in unexpected settings, collaborating across genres and premiering newly commissioned works.

We’d love to hear your ideas and create something extraordinary together.

Smaller Ensemble

OD is equally at home in a more intimate format.

Around twenty times each year, smaller ensembles from the choir perform at celebrations, conferences, corporate events, and private functions. The size of the ensemble is tailored to the venue, repertoire, and occasion.

Romantic serenades and traditional drinking songs are popular favourites, but we also perform lesser-known gems from the male choral repertoire that are perfectly suited to smaller audiences.
