Reviews

‘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.’

‘For me, Simon’s rehearsal [with Yale Schola Cantorum]
formed some of the finest ‘composition lessons’ I’ve ever experienced!’

‘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,
its authoritative direction wrought from a wealth
of experience and a profound musical mind.’

‘Carrington is an excellent leader
whose gestures were an effective blend of
clear patterns and shaping that were never
self-indulgent or extravagant and always in good taste.’

‘Simon Carrington draws lovely, beautifully balanced,
and technically assured singing
from his accomplished musicians.’
