How much do funeral singers cost?

A funeral soloist starts from 250 + VAT. A small choir of four singers is 1,295 + VAT, a full choir of eight is 2,295 + VAT, and a chorus of twelve singers is 3,595 + VAT. Travel charges apply outside of London. Each quote is bespoke and tailored to your requirements.

Do you only cover London?

We started out in London but we can now perform anywhere in the UK. We have singers based in London, Surrey, Middlesex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Essex, Bedfordshire, Oxfordshire, Cambridgeshire, the West Midlands, Hampshire, Dorset, and Norfolk. Travel expenses apply if your service is outside of London.

How much notice do you need to book funeral singers?

Ideally we would like a minimum of one week to source exactly the right singers and make all the arrangements, but we can send singers with as little as a day notice. Because we draw on a book of over 150 singers we will always be able to find singers for you, no matter the day, time, or location.

Can I have singers at a graveside burial?

Yes, we often sing at graveside services. Having music at the graveside or at an outdoor service is a popular option, and can help bring a more focused and intimate feel to an outdoor service.

Do you provide singers for all types of funerals?

Yes, we sing at both religious and secular funerals, and funerals of any religion or tradition. We are popular among the Catholic community, but we equally sing very often at Church of England, Methodist, and Baptist services. We respect all beliefs and customs.

How many singers should I have at a funeral?

We can provide everything from a single soloist to a choir of twenty. More singers will always result in a more uplifting performance. If the singers will be leading traditional hymns we recommend choirs in multiples of four, as most hymns are written in four parts. We are happy to advise based on your requirements.

Can I choose any songs for the funeral?

Yes, anything. We have a wide range of singers and will match whatever music you choose to the right voices. We can also provide song suggestions and advise on what works best for different choir sizes and styles.

Do you provide organists and instrumentalists for funerals?

Yes. We provide trained and vetted organists for 250 + VAT. We also have professional instrumentalists on our books including pianists, trumpeters, violinists, flautists, saxophonists, and string ensembles.

Briony liaised with us (and the funeral director) with great sensitivity and her attention to detail was exceptional. She was able to incorporate changes easily, showing great flexibility. My son loved music and the singers didn’t disappoint. They blended in with the attendees and it was as if they were fully a part of the gathering. The singing can only be described as ‘exquisite’.

The booking process with Briony, who handled my unique request with empathy and understanding, was seamless. I was navigating this for the first time, and her guidance was invaluable. The music was profoundly beautiful. Their performances added a deeply touching element to the ceremony. I am immensely grateful for their efforts in learning and beautifully performing the songs in Spanish. It was a tribute that will be remembered by all who were present. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I couldn't believe it! One call to Briony, and within minutes we had a confirmation and a singer booked with 2 days' notice. Professional, polished and incredible singing talent, it was a stressless way to have a singer at the last minute for my Father's funeral. Thank you, forever grateful.

Anna

I will never forget the sensation of hearing you sing Canticle of the Turning. You carried us so confidently to a place of beauty, strength and hope. I have no doubt my father's spirit heard it too. Your performance of Dad's favourite hymn expressed so well what he sought in life and what brought him joy. It was a real blessing.

Betty

From the first contact with London Funeral Singers I knew I had made the right choice. Briony was compassionate and helpful. Knowledgeable and experienced. Nothing seemed to be a problem. They liaised directly with the church organist, which takes away so much pressure. On the day, the soloist was outstanding and so many people commented about what a difference it made to the funeral service.

Briony was extremely helpful and when we were let down with only 24 hrs to go she found a wonderful singer for us. She sang unaccompanied and the whole church was mesmerised. I am very pleased I gave my dear wife the send off she truly deserved.

This service was recommended to us by our priest. We were worried about the beautiful hymns we chose not being heard, as we aren’t great singers! And the singer on the day didn’t disappoint, she made the service so special and sounded amazing!! Thank you to both Briony who managed the booking and our singer for making such a hard day so special and it really was.

We loved how they performed all five of the hymns we chose. It sounded miles better even than we thought it would be. We were all spellbound and it was very moving. I had arranged it all with Briony. Briony was so sympathetic and patient, and went out of her way to help me plan the funeral we wanted. Massive thanks from me and my Mum and family.

Jackie

We are just overwhelmed with how great the singer and organist were. At a painful, devastating time for me and my family they made a world of difference to the occasion, and we were so so grateful. At the end of the Mass, we were all tearful and I smiled, but what I really wanted was to go and give them both big hugs!

Jackie

If we could give the London Funeral Singers more than 5 out of 5 we would. Beautiful, beautiful service and they took it to another level. Amazing voices. Already we wish for them to sing at our funerals. Their rendition of "Here I am Lord" made the hairs stand up on our arms for its beauty and clarity. Such harmonies and still warm tones, crystal clear and with amazing depth of feeling. We cried throughout it and was proud to do so.
