Weymouth Choral Society is a group of enthusiastic amateur singers with a variety of voice types. We, currently, have about 100 singers who are led by our Musical Director, Helen Brind.
We perform a wide variety of choral works, often accompanied by orchestras and professional soloists, around the Weymouth and Portland Boroughs, usually at Holy Trinity Church, Weymouth. Some members of the choir perform at The Festival of the Voice at Stourhead in May and at the Big Sing at The Royal Albert Hall in the Summer, as well as carol singing at various venues in Weymouth. The Society also performs The Messiah for Hospices where all proceeds are given to local charities such as Weldmar.
Weymouth Choral Society members usually help at Weymouth Carnival by staffing a seafront stall and members sing carols at a local hospital and care home.
We have vacancies in all voice ranges and new members are welcomed. The first three rehearsals in September each year are tailored for new members with a 'No-committent' policy on either side, so that you can see if you would like to join us before
you have to pay a subscription. A friendly, short audition will follow if you decide that you would like to join.
Our rehearsals are enjoyable and we meet every Monday evening from 7.30 to 9.30 p.m. at The Wey Valley School, Dorchester Road, Weymouth. Map
