Stroud Choral Society
Welcome to the home page for Stroud Choral Society. We’re one of the oldest amateur choirs in the country and have been performing in front of audiences in Stroud and beyond since 1834.
With around 120 members, we aim to present at least four concerts a year, in Stroud, Cirencester, Nailsworth, Minchinhampton and other venues.
Rehearsals are on Monday evenings, normally held in the music block at Marling School, Stroud, starting at 7.30pm.
Following our sell-out performance of Handel's Messiah in November, and our Christmas concert (featuring the Minpins), we are busy rehearsing for our spring concert: Bach's St John Passion.

Our next concert....
J.S. Bach: St John Passion
Saturday 18th March, at St John Baptist Church, Cirencester.
Tickets will be on sale soon
Listen to one of our recordings of the lovely
Cantique de Jean Racine by Fauré

Youth choirs show us how it should be done!
Watch our talented youngsters performing a variety of songs in their summer concert recorded earlier this year on YouTube. This 30 minute concert is sure to lift your heart and soul!
The children have all worked so hard to produce this concert and normally this would be our main fundraiser of the year with people paying £10 a ticket to watch. If you feel you are able to make a donation to secure the future of the choir we would be very grateful. Thank you.

Stroud Choral Society
Stroud Choral Society was founded in 1834 and is one of the oldest choral societies in Britain. However, we are always moving with the times and in recent years have formed both a children’s choir - The Minpins - and a youth choir. Both groups have their own concert programme, and occasionally sing with us, too.
Our repertoire in recent years has included Beethoven's Mass in C, Elgar’s The Dream of Gerontius, Dvorak’s Requiem, the Verdi Requiem, Haydn’s Creation, Mendelssohn's Judas Maccabeus and Handel's Messiah.
Want to know more or possibly sing with us? Please visit the Contact Details page.

The Next Generation
Stroud Choral Society is proud to have two youth choirs under its umbrella: The Minpins, and Stroud Choral Youth Choir.
Rehearsals take place on Tuesday evenings during term time in Nailsworth. For further information about either choir, please contact:
