Carrington is one of the choral world’s elite …with the hand of a choral magician …
a teacher and advocate who fires the imagination of his students.

Simon Carrington’s chamber chorus sang with suspended tone, flexible phrasing, and
elegant blend. The performances were notable for discipline, taste, and stylistic diversity."

His numerous concerts and masterclasses reveal a cast-iron professionalism and boundless energy,
his authoritative direction wrought from a wealth of experience and a profound musical mind.
