Tenors and Basses wanted!


Whilst we welcome new members of all voices we are currently particularly keen to recruit more tenors and basses. Come along to a few rehearsals and see if you enjoy singing with us. See below for more details.

About the choir

Woking Choral Society was founded in 1896. It is a choir of around 110 members which performs a wide range of choral music. We try to balance lesser known works with the firm favourites of the choral repertoire. Recent concerts included works by Beethoven, Haydn, Mozart, Puccini, Vaughan Williams and Rachmaninov.

Our future programme includes Walton's Belshazzar's Feast and the Mozart Requiem

We usually perform two large concerts each year with orchestra and professional soloists plus a smaller concert in summer and often a carol concert. We rehearse every Monday evening from 19:30 to 21:35 in St Andrew's Church in Goldsworth Park, Woking. Our concerts are given either in The H.G. Wells Centre in Woking, in Guildford Cathedral or in Christ Church, Woking.

Membership

New members of all voices are warmly welcomed (tenors and basses are specially welcome!). New members usually have a trial period of a few weeks before having an audition for full membership. If you are interested in joining us please contact our membership secretary Barry Brett, phone:01483 760218, or our chairman Jenny Fowler on 01483 488175, or email: memsec@wokingchoral.org.uk .
