We are a friendly, enthusiastic and thriving choir of over 100 singers, based in Wallingford in South Oxfordshire. Although we are a non-auditioned choir, we set ourselves high musical standards and are ambitious to improve to the full extent of our potential.
We are delighted to announce the appointment of Tom Neal as our new Music Director. Tom is Director of Music at New College School, Oxford, one of the UK’s leading preparatory schools and home of New College’s renowned boy choristers. Tom is also a very experienced and successful choral society director having worked, amongst others, with Cleveland Philarmonic Choir, Cambridge University Musical Society and Portsmouth Festival Choir. We look forward to an exciting future working together - you can read more about Tom here.
While the standard classics of the choral repertoire remain at our core, with recent performances of the great works by Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Verdi and Elgar, we always enjoy the challenges of less well-known music. Concerts in recent years have highlighted both the new - Sunrise Mass by Ola Gjeilo, Pietà by Richard Blackford - and the unusual - Rio Grande by Constant Lambert, Misa Criola by Ramirez and Dona Nobis Pacem by Vaughan Williams.
We rehearse on Tuesday evenings from 7.30 - 9.30 pm in St Mary's Church, Market Place, Wallingford, OX10 0EG, with a refreshment break at half time.
New members will always be welcome and can come and try us without obligation - you won't regret it!
