Dear Harmonic Supporters

Singing – good for the heart and soul! – This is how the whole choir feels about singing, whether performing at the Royal Concert Hall with nearly 200 voices or gathering in small groups to experience the sheer joy of singing.

Under the guidance of our Music Director, Richard Laing, the Choir is now enjoying its 167th Season. We have already welcomed several new members to the Choir since September. We are delighted to say that in December we are returning to the Royal Concert Hall for our Messiah concert (3rd) and the Family Carol Concert (17th). Tickets are now on sale for both concerts – please see below for more information. On 25th February 2023 we will be holding our Come and Sing event – all details below.

We very much look forward to seeing you all during the Season.
