Summer Concert: Friday Night is Music Night

Huddersfield Town Hall

27th June 2027, 7:00 pm

Friday Night Is Music Night is the world’s longest-running live orchestral music radio programme – having been first broadcast in 1953. Its lynchpin is the BBC Concert Orchestra and the programmes feature many types of music, including classical, light, film, theatre, songs from the musicals, and opera and operetta. One of its biggest appeals is its unpredictable playlist, which is left unrevealed until broadcast. For that reason, we can’t tell you what the programme will be. You’ll just have to come along and find out!

Individual tickets for this concert go on sale at 9 am Tuesday, 15th September. If you are a Friend of HCS, you can access priority booking from 9am Wednesday 2nd September (see Become a Friend for details).

Mendelssohn: Elijah

Join HCS as it manifests its motto – ‘to uphold and renew a proud tradition …’ Few works better speak to that tradition than Mendelssohn’s great oratorio Elijah, a work that each generation of singers presents anew. Through choruses, sometimes rousing, sometimes full of pathos, and exquisite solos, Elijah tells a theatrical, operatic and dramatic story. Don’t miss the opportunity to hear this masterpiece live.Booking opens at 9 am Tuesday, 15 September 2026

HCS Christmas Concert

What better start to the Christmas season than rousing singing and a brass band? This year, HCS welcomes back on stage its own Youth Choirs for a concert full of festive treats. For those who’ve never experienced The Choral, this is the perfect introduction to HCS. There’ll be powerful singing, exquisite hushed moments, foot-tapping band numbers – and of course the opportunity to raise the town hall roof yourselves.Booking opens 9 am on Tuesday, 15 September 2026

Handel: Messiah

Recognised as HCS’s signature piece, Messiah, is probably the most celebrated choral work – and for many, the start of Christmas proper. This year we welcome Charlotte Corderoy, a young conductor with a stellar future, to put her own stamp on the work. Charlotte is already building an international reputation and was Critics’ Circle Conductor of the Year in 2025. You won’t want to miss it.

Duruflé: Requiem & Imogen Holst: Three Psalms

For our spring concert we return to Duruflé's Requiem, an atmospheric and deeply reflective work, performed only twice by the Society, latterly in 2012. Also in the programme is Imogen Holst’s Three Psalms. HCS performed the first of these, Psalm 80, 'Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel', in November 2024 to audience delight, so we welcome the opportunity to revisit this with her settings of Psalm 56, 'Be merciful unto me, O God' and Psalm 91, 'He that dwelleth in the secret place'.
