royal leamington spa bach choir

Choir founded in 1939                                                                   Registered Charity No. 506586

The Royal Leamington Spa Bach Choir is one of the leading amateur choirs in the Leamington Spa area. We perform a wide and varied repertoire and give regular concerts throughout the year.

The Choir has around 80 members from all walks of life, all of whom enjoy singing.  We are a friendly group of people who have gained a reputation as one of Warwickshire's best amateur choirs. We rehearse weekly on a Wednesday evening during term time under the baton of our Musical Director, Nigel Stark, and accompanist, Colin Druce. 

In our 2011-2012 concert season we are delighted to bring another exciting mix of musical offerings to our audience.  Forthcoming concerts include some popular classics and some works that may not be so familiar, such as:

· Bob Chilcott—Requiem

· Howard Goodall—Eternal Light, A Requiem

· Mozart—Vespers

· Handel—Ode on St Cecilia’s Day

· Elgar - From the Bavarian Highlands

· Mendelssohn — Opus 41 Vierstimmige Lieder

· Gilbert & Sullivan Choruses

(For further information see the Concert page)

We are also delighted to announce our innovative Choral Scholarship scheme for young singers. Details are provided on this site if you refer to the menu.
