Choral Society is a
friendly non-auditioned
choir from a small, but
historic, market town in
the north-east corner of
Wiltshire. The choir
usually performs three
concerts annually in the
local area, singing a
wide range of music from
traditional choral
favourites to lighter
modern pieces. |

Concerts are usually
staged in Highworth, with the
Christmas concert at St
Michael's Church, the Spring
concert also at St Michael's
and the Summer concert, with
more of a social element, at
Warneford School; all are fairly
close to the town centre. On
occasion the choir sings at
venues out of the town and 2009
& 2010 saw the choir
travelling to sing in
Highworth's twin town, Pontorson. |

has had a Choral Society since 1978 and
currently has about 50 members, of a
wide range of ages and backgrounds, and
is keen to accept new members into all
voice sections. Although the choir is
non-auditioned, the ability to sing
tunefully would be useful and being
familiar with reading music even more
so. Prospective new
members are always made welcome at
any rehearsal night.
