ensemble 1685
1685 was the year both Bach and Handel were born, and Richard Jeffcoat has adopted this resonant date as a brand-name for his musical endeavours.
ensemble 1685 was formed in 2005 from singers associated with Coventry Cathedral. With more than 200 public performances, the ensemble has gained a reputation for inspirational music-making in Coventry, Warwickshire and further afield, with tours to Scotland, France, Portugal and Ireland.
ensemble 1685 performs all kinds of vocal music, from Renaissance masters to music of the present day, including large-scale works by Bach, Handel and Brahms, and lighter music suitable for weddings and celebrations.
ensemble 1685 is proud of its commitment to socially inclusive music-making, performing in churches without a choral tradition, and in closed communities, such as prisons and care homes.
If you would like to see us in action, or if you can think of an event we can enliven, please call 024 7659 4916
We are grateful for the support of Coventry City Council and the Heart of England Community Foundation.
