Welcome to Peterborough Choral Society
We performed the first concert with our new Musical Director Bradley Smith to wide acclaim in Thorney Abbey on 7th July 2024 and the choir look forward to the upcoming season with him. Bradley is a vocal coach so rest assured that you will be in safe hands.
The choir is enjoying the journey with Bradley, so if you think this opportunity is for you please send us a message on the Contact page and we'd be pleased to help. We look forward to hearing from you. We welcome new members at any time with 3 free rehearsal weeks which enables you to see how the choir works and how we rehearse. There is no audition and new members are welcome in all sections.
Peterborough Choral Society, with their new Musical Director Bradley Smith, are performing a concert on 30th November at 7.30pm in St. Kyneburgha’s Church, Castor: Rossini - The Sins of his Old Age.
Rossini (1792-1868) was a famous Italian composer, who had an understanding of the human voice and orchestration, mixed with his gift for melody and a sense of humour. As well as writing numerous operas he was noted for his sacred music. The choir will be singing 'La Petite Messe Solennelle' which was written towards the end of his life in 1863. The choir will be joined by choral scholars and lay clerks from the top Cambridge University college choirs and a pianist from St Catherine's College, Cambridge. Tickets are £17 (under 18's free) and can be purchased through https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/Peterborough-Choral-Society/t-qjpllpk and on the door. Refreshments will also be available.
