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.
We resumed rehearsals in September 2021 and hope to put on our normal programme of concerts during 2021-22, subject to prevailing Covid restrictions. Despite smaller numbers, we are delighted to have performed our Christmas concerts to appreciative audiences at Holy Trinity, Wentworth and St Andrew's, Psalter Lane in December 2021.
Music Director
We are looking for a new Music Director to succeed Nigel Russell-Sewell, who is taking up a new post following our concert in March 2022.
The Music Director plans and conducts rehearsals, develops the choir's repertoire and choral skills, and arranges concert programmes, working in collaboration with the Committee and the Associate Soloist. The post is described in more detail here.
