Sarah Corp intended to become a cellist, only taking up singing during her time at Durham University when she became a Choral Scholar. She read Music with Linguistics and at the time of her graduation won a Choral Scholarship to St Martin-in-the-Fields. The following year she appeared in Blow’s Venus & Adonis conducted by Philip Pickett at Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre, a production later given at the Queen Elizabeth Hall.

Sarah is a true lyric soprano, and has been taught a singing tradition that has its roots in the middle of the 19th century, her singing teacher being a pupil of Isobel Baillie. Her coaches in style and repertoire have included Robin Bowman and Richard Jackson.

Sarah is an experienced oratorio soloist. Her concert engagements have included Elijah, Poulenc’s Gloria and Rutter’s Requiem, all at Arundel Cathedral; Mozart’s Requiem at Chichester Cathedral; Vivaldi’s Gloria and Regina Coeli (Mozart-K127) at Rochester Cathedral; Fauré’s Requiem at St Brides, Fleet Street; and Christmas Oratorio at Canterbury and St Bartholomew’s Church, Brighton. She sang First Soprano in the UK premiere of Robert D Levin’s edition of Mozart’s Mass in C Minor (K427) at the Assembly Hall, Worthing, (Good Friday, 2006), and received an ovation for her singing of the famous solo, Et Incarnatus Est.

Sarah sang in the Brighton Early Music Festivals 2003 and 2004, performing Scarlatti’s cantata Arianna and Carissimi’s Jephthe. In May 2005 Sarah gave a critically-acclaimed performance of Mozart’s Exsultate, Jubilate with the Mid-Sussex Sinfonia, Haywards Heath, and appeared with the Orchestra again in their 2006/07 season, singing Berlioz' Les Nuits d'Eté.

Sarah has recently ventured into opera, and enjoyed singing the role of Elsie Maynard (Yeomen of the Guard) for Southwick Opera’s 40th Anniversary production at the Barn Theatre, Southwick.  She sang the role of 2nd Medium in Vaughan Williams' The Poisoned Kiss for New Sussex Opera.

Sarah is a successful recitalist, and has programmes to suit a variety of venues. She has given recitals for Music Clubs and in churches, including St Martin-in-the-Fields, Christ Church, Woking; King William's College, Isle of Man and more recently a programme of lieder at the Arundel Festival.

One of Sarah’s most treasured possessions was given to her by an American tourist couple (complete strangers) who attended her recital at St Martin-in-the-Fields. Coming into the vestry after the concert, they pressed a $100 bill into her hand saying “That was quite beautiful, please have dinner on us!”
