New concerts planned for the spring and summer

Following our successful “Coming out of Covid” concert in December, the South West London Choral Society have started rehearsing towards new concerts planned for April and July 2022.

On Saturday April 9th 2022 we will be performing Stainer’s “Crucifixion”. This was originally part of the programme for the last concert that we were planning before the pandemic hit. We are very much looking forward to finally having the opportunity to perform this.

As part of this concert we will also be performing settings of “O vos omnes” by Pablo Casals, Martin Everett, Carlo Gesualdo, Michael Haydn and Tomás Luis de Victoria.

The concert will start at 7.30pm, and will be at St Mary’s Chuch in Battersea: Battersea Church Rd, London SW11 3NA.

From Monday April 25th 2022 we will start rehearsing for our summer concert - “'Garlands and Goddesses'“ - which will take place on Saturday July 9th 2022. The programme will largely consist of madrigals and similar pieces by composers including Luca Marenzio, Robert Pearsall, Thomas Weelkes, and John Wilbye.

We are back to singing at our regular home in Balham and rehearsals are taking place every Monday evening. We welcome all voices without audition – soprano, alto, tenor and bass. We ask only that you are enthusiastic and committed to attending rehearsals – and sing in tune!
