Who is Finch Music
From a non-auditioned Monday-night choir to a pop-up choir in the pub, from musical-theatre scores to bespoke backing tracks — Matt has spent 25 years making singing feel like home in Bath.
Choir leader for 25+ years across the classical choral, musical-theatre and popular-choir traditions — and the founder of Horizons, Choir of Bath.
Original musicals — MissRed, Laura’s Star, The Fame Effect — alongside choral works, an award-winning carol, and music for theatre and film.
The Under-an-Hour series, learning & backing tracks and bespoke vocal arrangements for choirs, schools and ensembles — scored to your voices.
The choirs
A choir for every kind of singer in and around Bath — most need no audition and no experience, just a willingness to make a noise.

About Matt Finch
Matt has been a musical director, choir leader and pianist for over 25 years, working across the classical choral tradition, musical theatre and popular choirs. He’s conducted over fifty shows — Sweeney Todd, Carousel, Sister Act — and Vivaldi’s Gloria in Venice.
