## **Objectives and Activities** 

The objectives of Nonsuch Singers (the Choir) are to promote, improve, develop and maintain public education in and appreciation of the art and science of music in all its aspects by the presentation of public concerts and by such other ways as the Choir, through its Committee, shall determine from time to time. 

The Choir aims to prepare and present a series of high quality public choral concerts, primarily in London, offering a range and variety of music from different genres and periods, with and without accompaniment, for the edification and enjoyment of audiences. 

The Trustees of Nonsuch Singers have continued to have regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. 

The Choir continues to be enormously grateful for the hard work of all those volunteers who make the activities of Nonsuch Singers possible, including the Committee of Trustees and those who provide wider support with the organisation of rehearsals, maintaining the website, and the presentation of concerts. 

## **Achievements and Performances** 

Nonsuch Singers began its 2024-25 concert season with a Nordic programme titled ‘Journey Into Light’, which took place on 12 October at St James’s, Sussex Gardens. It featured music associated with Baltic and Scandinavian countries, including works by Arvo Pärt, Eriks Ešenvalds, Urmas Sisask, Ola Gjeilo, Vytautas Miškinis, Uģis Praulinš, and Gabriel Jackson. 

The Christmas concert was held in the Arts & Crafts surrounds of Holy Trinity, Sloane Square. This concert, ‘In the Stillness’, featured the eponymous work by Sally Beamish, as well as music by modern British composers such as Joanna Forbes-L’Estrange, Ben Parry, and Jonathan Dove, as well as the Stanford _Magnificat_ and Holst _Ave Maria_ . 

In February 2025 at St Peter’s, Eaton Square, Nonsuch Singers revisited elements of a programme from March 2023 that had proven popular with choir members. This included the Pizzetti _Requiem_ , Casciolini _Stabat mater_ , MacMillan _Miserere_ , Byrd _Ne irascaris_ . A new and well-recevied addition to the choir’s repertoire was a performance of Hildegard of Bingen _O Ecclesia_ , creating a concert that features works spanning time from the 12[th] to the 21[st] centuries. 

On 5[th] April 2025, a long-held ambition was realised when the choir performed Bach’s _St John Passion_ in the recently-renovated Smith Square Hall. An excellent Nonsuch Baroque Players was assembled for the occasion by James Eastaway, and Tom Bullard marshalled a splendid lineup of soloists. Unfortunately, on the night, our planned Evangelist Alessandro Fisher was, sadly, ill, but the role was magnificently covered by Ed Lyon, Julia Dyle, Catherine Backhouse, Jimmy Holliday, and Zahid Siddiqui. The performance was of a very high standard, although the audience could have been larger. This performance was largely made possible through the generosity of donations from within the choir (see next section), which enabled us to book such a high-calibre musicians while remaining financially sound. 

Summer 2025 saw a pair of concerts featuring Joby Talbot’s _Path of Miracles_ , which has become a firm favourite of the choir, in June at Douai Abbey and in July at St James’s Sussex Gardens.

The audience was particularly strong at the second performance, and the choir and audience were both, as always, moved by the power of the work. 

## **Financial Review** 

The Charity’s principal sources of funds are the income from the sale of tickets for concerts (which, in an era of smaller audiences, typically no longer covers the full cost of presenting them) and membership subscriptions, which are broadly intended to cover the costs of rehearsals and general operations. 

Annual subscription income for the year was £8,504. Once Gift Aid was added, this covered the Choir’s running costs of £9,719. 

Income from concerts and other activities was £13,396 (2024 £7,360). Concert costs overall were £21,736 (2024 £10,479) resulting in a loss on these activities. 

Total donations, including subscriptions and Gift Aid, were £18,590.25 (2024 £11,666). The majority of donations excluding subscriptions were made in support of our St. John Passion concert at Smith Square. 

At 31 August 2025 the Charity had funds totalling £18,684 (2024 £17,719). 

The Trustees’ policy on reserves is to maintain sufficient reserves for the Charity to continue to meet its ongoing commitments and to provide sufficient funds to meet its objectives. The Trustees consider the current level of reserves to be adequate in this regard. 

The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties affecting the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. 

The Charity’s accounts below have been prepared in line with current statutory requirements, the Charity’s governing documents and the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) FRS 102. 

## **Risk** 

The Trustees have continued to assess the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, and systems are established to mitigate and manage these risks. 

The key risks are: 

- That income is insufficient to cover our costs; 

- Loss of membership; 

- Failure to meet our regulatory obligations and to manage other liabilities associated with public performance; and 

- Damage to the reputation of the choir. 

It is a key part of the ongoing work of the Trustees to plan and carry out actions designed to limit our exposure to each of these risks, and to optimise the success of the choir in achieving its charitable objectives.
