"It takes me to a place that only other members will understand; it lifts you and even if you feel low, as soon as we all sing you are miraculously energised and can’t help but smile"
Join Us
We are always pleased to hear from prospective new singing members. We have a membership of around 150 individuals, with a wide range of ages and experience in all sections.
A few members have been in the choir for over 50 years, while some have only been in a short time, but with its wonderful camaraderie and sense of fun, every member is made to feel an important part of this great choir.
Although we have a core membership of long serving singers, we appreciate that some members may only be able to stay with us for a short period before moving on to pastures new. Therefore, we have a continuous recruitment programme. We rehearse every Tuesday night between 7.00pm and 9.00pm currently at Moldgreen United Reformed Church, Huddersfield.
One Voice
Why Join?
A wide and varied repertoire
Being a Choral Society – rather than a Symphony Chorus attached to an orchestra – the Society has the freedom to schedule its own choral programme. The Society performs with professional orchestras, conductors and soloists. As well as our subscription concert series in Huddersfield Town Hall we regularly participate in high-profile projects both in the UK and abroad.
Expert Guidance
The choir benefits from a wealth of musical knowledge from the musical professionals engaged by the Society.
These include its Music Director and Associate, Accompanist and Vocal Coach, as well as other visiting music professionals. This gives members a well-rounded and enjoyable musical experience and develops their own abilities.
It’s great fun
Rehearsals are always lively; sometimes revisiting familiar and popular works, often learning entirely new music – frequently with much laughter, and with an enormous sense of achievement when it’s finally right.
Friendly and welcoming
Great friendships are forged wherever groups of people with a common purpose meet regularly. The Society’s weekly rehearsals create a natural camaraderie – new members often comment on the friendly welcome they receive from other members of the choir.
We are Auditioning Now!
How To Join Us
Prospective new members are asked to sing a piece of their own choice and a piece sent to them in advance of the audition to assess their learning ability; a couple of straightforward aural tests and vocal exercises to assess your range. It takes no longer than 10 minutes!
We are looking at the potential of new members rather than looking for the finished product and we aim to make the audition process as relaxed as possible which includes the opportunity to sit in on one or two rehearsals before auditioning. Applicants must be 18 years of age or older and be able to read music.
