Fingersmith Collective Verified listing

The Fingersmith Collective is a youth community choir, based in Bangalore that performs classical and contemporary pieces. Unlike most community choirs, our performers are children and youth.

Before being selected, the children successfully pass at least a couple of grade exams in music. Their focus is in studying music, covering interesting and related topics about the piece, its composer, style, and context besides the usual vocal warm-ups, posture, breathing, diction, intonation, and of course: rehearsals.

For many of them, this is their first experience with choral singing and western classical music.

They perform regularly, at a number of prestigious venues and events. Some of these venues include:

• Bangalore International Centre,
• St. Mark’s Cathedral,
• St. Andrew’s Church,
• Koramangala Methodist Church,
• Indian Campus Crusade,
• Banaswadi Bible Church, among many others.

During the lockdown, they continued to work virtually, and were invited and participated in the International Choral Festival by the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR), the Glorious Gospel Choral Festival among online concerts and have won consecutive trophies at the Basel Mission Choral Competition.
