Welcome
Welcome to the website of the Pocket Score Company, Canberra’s smallest chamber vocal ensemble!
The Pocket Score formed to bring the beautiful but rarely-heard sound of the all-male vocal ensemble to Australian audiences—mainly in early music, but with the flexibility to explore music from across the centuries, including works written especially for the group. (You can read more about the concept.) We look forward to seeing you at a Pocket Score Company performance soon!
You can read our latest news (including recordings from performances and some behind-the-scenes rehearsal recordings), meet the singers who make up the Pocket Score Company, and visit us on Facebook.
Most importantly, though, you should join our mailing list, which entitles you to discounts on concert tickets and ensures you won’t miss out when performances are announced.
Thanks for visiting, and welcome!
