Since its inaugural broadcast, Exultate Singers has made several further appearances on BBC Radio and Television, including BBC Radio 4's Sunday Worship, a live broadcast from St Martin-in-the-Fields on BBC Radio 4 for Ascension Day in 2005, BBC Radio 2's Sunday Half Hour, BBC Radio 3's The Choir, BBC Radio 3's "In Tune" [1] and BBC One's Songs Of Praise[2][3] The choir also performs live in concerts in Bristol, around the South West and further afield.
