Musical Director
Anthony Osborne
Anthony is a highly accomplished, versatile and passionate singer and choral conductor. He has been singing in choirs since he was 9 years old. He was a choral scholar at Wells Cathedral, won a scholarship to the RNCM to study singing and conducting and spent 7 years training in opera. After graduation, he went on to become a member of the Glyndebourne chorus where he performed regularly for 16 years and sang numerous operatic roles.
Having left Glyndebourne, Anthony now runs his own specialist piano business and has also resumed his other passions in music, including conducting. In 2024 he was appointed Music Director of Crowborough Choral Society.
Anthony has been a church organist for the last 27 years and is currently Director of Music at Christ the King, Eastbourne.
We say a fond and grateful goodbye to Bryan Gipps our former director of music who passed on the baton to Anthony on 15 November 2025 after 23 years with SVCS.
