Welcome
Hello, I'm Gareth Malone - animateur, presenter and populariser of choral singing.
Here on my website you can find out more about me and what I've been up to lately, what's new in choral singing and how to get in touch with me.

The Choir: Unsung Town
South Oxhey Festival
Nearing the end of his project in the Hertfordshire housing estate of South Oxhey, choirmaster Gareth Malone sets out on a grand venture to get the whole community behind his choral project. He decides he wants to stage a free choral festival at South Oxhey playing fields, a large green space normally used for football and dog-walking, and embarks on putting together the largest event this area has seen for half a century.

Knight Crew
9 March 2010
Thanks to the marvelous cast and team of
The Knight Crew
for all their hard work in making this such an amazing project. There's a fabulous review
here in the Guardian
that just about sums it up - well done! Look out for the BBC 2 programme
Gareth Goes to Glyndebourne
due to be aired in June.

Sing Out Brother
6 May 09
I came across
this article
in the Guardian today. Martin Ashley and Caroline Gale were a great help to me during the second series of The Choir and gave me lots of guidance in singing with teenage boys.

BAFTAs
27 Apr 2009
I'm excited to announce that The Choir - Boys Can't Sing won a BAFTA last night! Woo hoo!!
We beat Top Gear, The Apprentice and Celebrity Masterchef to the 'features' award. Thanks to everyone at Lancaster Boys school in Leicester and to Twentytwenty television for making it happen.
If you missed the magic moment on BBC 1 last night you can watch it again on the
BBC iplayer
; the features award is about 1 hour and 2 mins into the proceedings.
Still recovering here from the celebrations!
