We are a mixed choir of around 60 members and have been an established part of the Sheffield music scene since 1969. We sing a wide range of music from
the choral repertoire, and are equally at home with full-scale requiem masses and unaccompanied part songs. Browse the website to find out more about the choir.
After a two-year break we were delighted to perform our Christmas concerts to appreciative audiences at Holy Trinity, Wentworth and St Andrew's, Psalter Lane in December 2021. And in March 2022 we were at last able to give our much-postponed spring concert featuring Antonio Salieri's rarely heard Requiem as well as his De Profundis and two of Handel's Coronation anthems: Zadok the Priest and The King Shall Rejoice. Our four young soloists also performed extracts from Handel's Birthday Ode for Queen Anne.
That was our final concert under the baton of Nigel Russell-Sewell; George Parsons has been appointed as our new music director and will take up the post in September 2022.
