Info zu In The Dark

The Platinum Consort, with their director Scott Inglis-Kidger, make their debut recording on Resonus with a programme of music both for and inspired by the Tenebrae tradition. Featuring some of the most powerful and poignant choral music to come from the western world, the Platinum Consort present a survey of works from the sixteenth century to the present day - including James MacMillan's stunning Miserere and Tenebrae settings by the consort's composer-in-residence Richard Bates. The recording also includes In The Dark composed by Bates especially for this recording.

Scott Inglis-Kidger, conductor

Scott Inglis-Kidger, Conductor & Director
Scott Inglis-Kidger gained an MA in Music from the University of Cambridge, having specialised in early music, conducting and the science and psychology of music. As a countertenor, Scott studied with David Lowe and sang in the world famous King’s College Choir, appearing on the 2005 BBC television broadcast of Carols from King’s. With King’s, Scott performed many concerts in Europe, most notably in the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and at the Stuttgart Barock Festival. Scott also sang in the Cambridge University Chamber Choir and an array of ad hoc consorts, inspiring him to form Platinum Consort in 2005.

Before Platinum became his full time project in 2011, Scott was Director of Music and Master of the Choristers at Willington School, Wimbledon, where he established the renowned Willington School Choristers. He was subsequently Director of Music at Thomas’s School, Battersea, where he managed one of the largest prep school departments in London. During this time, Scott developed a passion for training singers of all ages, which led him to establish Platinum Boys’ Choir and Platinum Choral Workshops in 2011.

Scott conducts Thomas’s Choral Society and recent sell-out concerts have included Handel’s Messiah with the Saraband Consort and John Rutter’s Requiem with Platinum Boys’ Choir and Lakeswood Sinfonia.

Scott recently recorded his debut album with Platinum Consort and toured to Venice with Platinum Boys’ Choir. In addition to conducting, Scott directs many workshops around the country and is much in demand as a vocal coach for individuals and groups, and as an early music specialist.

Platinum Consort
was founded by Scott Inglis-Kidger and Claire Jaggers in 2005. Platinum has since expanded to comprise a professional Consort, a Boys’ Choir and a series of varied Choral Workshops. Further expansion is planned and the existing Platinum ensembles will be joined in the future by a Girls’ Choir, a Chamber Choir and a Period Instrument Band.

The consort specialises in bringing vibrancy to early music, as well as breathing life into newly commissioned pieces. Originating at the University of Cambridge, the consort attracted singers from the renowned choirs of St John’s, Jesus, Trinity and King’s Colleges. Many of these original members are now professional singers with Platinum.

The group has an affinity with the music of Platinum’s Composer in Residence, Richard Bates, and recently premiered his Tenebrae. These, along with other works inspired by the Tenebrae tradition, appear on their debut album, In The Dark, released in 2012 on the Resonus Classics label.

Platinum Consort has an exciting 2012-2013 schedule planned, which includes the launch performance of In The Dark at Kings Place, a performance of Monteverdi’s Vespers (1610) and a semi-staged tour of Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas. In December 2013 Platinum will perform Bach’s Christmas Oratorio with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, as part of the Kings Place Bach Unwrapped Festival.
