It tours throughout Western and Eastern Europe, the United States of America, Russia, and the Middle and Far East, frequently performs in Britain’s major concert halls with many leading British orchestras, and regularly contributes to the Choral Evensong broadcasts on BBC Radio 3.

Clare Choir became the first mixed-voice choir from Cambridge or Oxford to perform at the BBC Proms, singing Bach’s St John Passion, and made a further appearance at the Proms in a performance of Berlioz’s L’Enfance du Christ with the Monteverdi Choir.
