The choir was formed in 1970 and rehearse on Monday evenings at Gatley United Reform Church, Elm Grove, 7.30 – 9.30 p.m.

We normally give three concerts per year and recent repertoire has included Messiah, Pergolesie’s Magnificat (with string quartet), Lo, The Full, Final Sacrifice – Finzi and Hymn To The Incarnate God – Drew (a new commission). We have also combined with other choral societies to perform larger works such as Verdi’s Requiem.

Music for concerts is hired by the society and may be borrowed. There is also opportunity to buy personal copies at discounted prices.

Each section of the choir has a representative on the committee and your rep will be pleased to help you settle in, answer your queries and pass on your comments at any time.
