Welcome.

Welcome to the Jubilate Singers, a Christchurch (New Zealand) SATB chamber choir of around 30 singers conducted by Music Director Philip Norman. The 'Jubes' present 3-4 public concerts a year featuring a wide range of international and New Zealand choral music, and we are well-known for our innovative programming and consistently high standard. 

Join us at our next concert

Our next concert is "Four Funerals and a Wedding" - music to die for!

Join us at Knox Church, Bealey Avenue, on May 2nd, 2026.  

We're looking for new members

Fancy joining us? If so, then membership of Jubilate Singers in 2025 will be the perfect cure for your choral cravings. But! You have to relish variety, be curious about the unfamiliar, be excited by a musical challenge, love singing unaccompanied and revel in convivial company.

You don’t have to be a soloist to join. All voice types welcome, and try before you buy: come along to a rehearsal on Monday evenings at 7.15 Knox Church Hall, 28 Bealey Avenue, Christchurch.

Feel free to email our secretary Viv with any questions - secretary@jubilate.org.nz - or learn more about singing with us on our 'Join' page.
