Established in the 1830s, Warrington Musical Society (WMS) is one of the oldest musical societies in England. It is a mixed Sopranos, Altos, Tenors and Basses choir and at present has 18 members. We currently rehearse on a Monday evening (19.15-21.30) between 30 and 40 weeks a year at Christ Church School, Padgate, Warrington and normally perform three concerts per year at Christ Church, Padgate,
We have sung a wide range of pieces in recent years, including oratorios, requiems and traditional folk songs. We are currently rehearsing Haydn's Nelson Mass and some well-known traditional songs for a concert in June. Our Christmas concert combines carols and readings. We welcome singers of all ages who are prepared to give a high level of commitment to attending rehearsals and taking part in concerts. We do not audition. We sometimes use internal and external soloists for our concerts; external soloists are often recruited from the Royal Northern College of Music..
We are a friendly, supportive, choir and always welcome new members. If our choir sounds of interest, please email our Chair, Dave Perfect ([email protected]) for more information. We look forward to hearing from you!
