The Society is based in the North Wiltshire town of Corsham. We have about 50 members drawn from the town itself and the surrounding area which embraces Bath, Chippenham and Melksham. We rehearse on Wednesday evenings from 7.30 to 9.30 in Corsham Town Hall where we also perform our smaller scale concerts. Concerts on a larger scale are performed in nearby venues such as St Bartholomew's Church in Corsham.

We are on the lookout for new members, particularly tenors and basses, and invite anyone who is interested in joining us to contact our Membership Secretary, Margaret Waters.

We are very pleased to announce that we have recently appointed Francis Faux as our new Musical Director and we have been working under his direction since the beginning of January 2012. Francis is a very experienced pianist, music teacher and choral director who has already made his mark on the musical life of Bath. To find out more about Francis on his own website go to www.francisfaux.co.uk. As we ring in the new at the start of 2012, we are also very pleased to welcome Will Ashworth as our new accompanist.

Our energetic committee is chaired by Helen Snowball, and for ten years until 2011 we sang under the inspirational leadership of Colin Howard. Colin has now left us and you can read Helen's tribute to to his ten years as our conductor if you click here.

We perform 3 concerts each year with music from a wide spectrum of the choral repertoire. Our concert programme in the 2010/2011 season included works by Vivaldi, Purcell, Monteverdi, Schubert, Bruckner and Rutter, as well as an evening of favourite opera choruses.

We aim to provide something for everyone to enjoy.

Our most recent concert Rejoice and Be Glad! was on 19th November at 7.30 in Shaw Church near Melksham. We sang Bach's motet Jesu Priceless Treasure, Te Deum by Haydn, choruses from Messiah, Byrd's Ave Verum and Te Deum by Purcell.

We also had plenty of festive activity over the Christmas period. To find out more, click here
