Alexander L’Estrange and Joanna Forbes L’Estrange are prolific composers and arrangers of choral music, both individually and as a partnership. Receiving commissions from choral societies, schools, chamber choirs, church choirs and a cappella groups, their music is sung and enjoyed throughout the world.Â
Alexander is regularly commissioned to write arrangements for world-class vocal groups including Voces8, The Queen’s Six, Amarcord and The King’s Singers, for whom he wrote and produced the Great American Songbook album. Joanna began writing music and lyrics during her tenure as soprano and Musical Director of the five-time Grammy® Award-winning vocal group The Swingles.Â
All of Alexander and Joanna’s compositions and arrangements come with excellent learning resources for choirs including part-learning tracks and backing tracks, professionally recorded by the couple in their home studio #OldStableStudios. They also offer expert coaching for choirs, both in person and online. Their popular workshop You can sing…but can you swing?! gives choirs the tools to perform pop and jazz arrangements with greater style and confidence.
