Looking after the chorus are:

David is our Principal conductor. He is based in London, and has over 25 years ́ experience working with choirs across the UK and around the world. He leads our workshops in Basel, and returns to conduct the Chorus when we perform.

Under his skilful direction, we connect as an ensemble, and maximise our individual contributions to achieve a rich, resonant sound.

Beverley is the co-founder and Artistic Director of the Basel Proms, and has performed as a soloist in both Basel Proms Stadtcasino productions to date (2022 and 2024). You can read all about her education, career and international concert activities here.

Maija is our Chorus Master for all preparatory rehearsals. She is a professional conductor and choir director, and is presently the musical co-director of the Camerata Basilea. She leads several choirs and conducts various ensembles in Switzerland and abroad. Born in Riga, Latvia, Maija now lives in Basel with her Swiss husband and two children.

Claire is the Chorus Coordinator. She manages rehearsal logistics, communications (Basel Proms Chorus newsletter, Chorus website, our ‘info at’ email account) and will answer or relay your questions, enquiries or feedback to the wider team.
