Open event by the Chester Bach Singers to mark its 50th anniversary, with an open rehearsal for potential new members.
Chester Bach Singers are holding an open event at Kings School on Wrexham Road on Wednesday 18 November, starting at 7.30pm. It's part of their 50th anniversary celebrations, a milestone they're marking with a series of special events throughout the year.
Formed in 1976, the ensemble is a chamber choir that describes itself as one of the finest in the country. They're led by Musical Director Joseph Judge, and Chair Helen Crich says this anniversary marks a special chapter as the choir looks to the future. The 2026/2027 season is their anniversary season, and it opens with a concert-recital centred on Ralph Vaughan Williams' The Lark Ascending, in Paul Drayton's arrangement for choir and solo violin.
Alongside their main programme, the choir runs a Young Singers Scheme and holds open rehearsals for potential new members. They've a particular interest in hearing from Altos, Tenors and Basses, so if you're one of those and have been thinking about singing again, this is a good way in. Anyone wanting to attend an open rehearsal is asked to register their interest by email.
