About us

We are a mixed-voice 80-strong choir and we put on four classical music concerts a year In Hastings/St Leonards. Major choral works are normally performed with an orchestra; the annual Christmas Carols for All with piano and a small brass ensemble. We rehearse once a week from September to July and on the day of each concert.
