CONSORT IRIDIANA is an all-female choir founded by Jonathan Williams, conductor and Director of College Music at St Hilda’s College, Oxford. Named after the Greek goddess Iris, who travelled along rainbows to bring messages from the heavens to the earth, Iridiana sings a wide range of music for female voices from Hildegard of Bingen to newly-commisioned works.
Since their debut at Oxford's University Church, Iridiana has quickly found itself at the heart of music-making in the city, performing at the prestigious Oxford Lieder Festival, at a sell-out concert at the University Church, at St Hilda's College, for services at Christ Church Cathedral and at New College, and giving performances of 'An Imaginary Pilgrimage' at the Chapels of Wadham College and New College.
