In this recording of our webinar (original event 9 October 2025) in our series of lunchtime webinars presented by our corporate members, we heard from ChoirCommunity.
Now in its eigth year, ChoirCommunity has grown from a tiny startup to a significant music marketplace for choirs of all shapes and sizes, boasting a library of nearly 2000 titles including some unexpected gems. One of the driving forces behind ChoirCommunity was the recognition that consistently sourcing high-quality choir music is hard to do; also, that some of the best choral arrangements were written by talented choir leaders but could not be published due to copyright restrictions.
All the music collected at ChoirCommunity has been composed or arranged by 29 submitting musicians, all of whom are also experienced choir leaders. That means that every piece of music has been written specifically with the enjoyment of both singers and audiences in mind and has been tried and tested in live performances all over the world. Due to the quality of the music ChoirCommunity offer, over 13,000 choirs have now signed up, with around 200 more joining every month (mostly through word of mouth).
We also discussed:
- The breadth of music in the collection – with some examples of the best and unexpected pieces
- ChoirCommunity's licencing model and music licencing in general, with emphasis on recognising and rewarding the efforts of the musicians
