While today’s choral music minimizes rhythm, it’s Mr. Chilcott’s life blood. Celebrating it, he adds J.S. Bach to the conversation. Whether singing or acting, Conductor Chilcott describes being engaged, not dictatorial.
[Bob Chilcott’s musical gifts were recognizable when he was 3 years old. He soon became one of the singular King’s College Cambridge boy choristers. For years, he was one of the esteemed King Singers, then went out on his own. Now Principle Guest Conductor of the BBC Singers, Mr. Chilcott also is justly famous for his glorious gifts as a composer and arranger.]
