| Customarily we perform three concerts a year. These are usually major works for the Autumn and Spring performances and a collection of smaller, lighter pieces for the Summer concert. We perform at a variety of venues in the Reading area, but most frequently at St Joseph's College which has the benefit of familiarity (being the place where we practice) and the availability of abundant car parking, as well as providing a brilliant hall for our performances. | |

We are frequently joined in our performances by professional musicians. These include both instrumentalists, who make up small orchestras or ensembles to accompany the choral works, and soloists. These professionals often agree to perform in their own right to add to and enhance the choral programme. In addition to the three major performances, we also hold a carol concert in mid-December typically either at a local church, or St Joseph's College. The profits are donated to local charities, recently to Launchpad, Reading's leading homelessness prevention charity. Our next concerts will be on Saturday the 16th of November consisting of C.P.E Bach's Magnificat and Haydn's Maria Theresa Mass. This will be followed on the 12 of December by our Christmass Carol concert and in Spring (5th April) by Haydn's Creation.. However we have an Open Rehearsal for the Autumn concert on Thursday the 5th of September. See Our Next Concert for Details Maybe we will see you there |
