Illumination was founded in 2006 by the composer Miriam Mackie to perform music by living composers, alongside established repertoire from the high Renaissance and early Baroque periods.
The choir rehearses in central London, performing throughout the year. The choir occasionally performs outside London in the summer, and plan to give more concerts in Europe. Composer Alexander Campkin has conducted the choir from October 2014.
