Judith Bingham (b. 1952) studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London, where she was awarded the Principal’s prize in 1971. Bingham was a member of the BBC Singers, and from 2004–2009 was their composer in association. Although her output boasts many choral works, she is seen as an all-rounder. Bingham’s catalogue includes pieces for brass band, symphonic wind ensemble and various chamber groups and solo instruments, concertos for trumpet and bassoon and tuba, several impressive works for large orchestra and diverse anthems and church works for UK cathedrals. In 2007 she became a Fellow of the Royal School of Church Music for distinguished services to church music.
