Singing in a choir is a brilliant way to meet new people and it has been proven to instil a sense of happiness and increase wellbeing.

The choir  performs several times a year together with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of conductor, Pete Harrison. There are no auditions to join and the ability to read music is not essential. Rehearsals take place on Wednesday evenings from 7.15-9.30pm at Richard Taunton Sixth Form College, Hill Lane, Southampton, SO15 5RL.

Choir members enjoy being part of the BSO family, sharing experiences in rehearsal and on the concert platform, with social events alongside plenty of tea, biscuits and fun, as well as benefitting from ticket discounts for all BSO promoted concerts.

  • Rehearsals take place on Wednesday evenings from 7.15-9.30pm beginning 31 May 2023 at Richard Taunton Sixth Form College, Hill Lane, Southampton, SO15 5RL.
  • Please ensure that you can attend the rehearsals (you may miss up to 3 rehearsals by prior agreement) and that you are able to perform on Saturday 8 July or Saturday 15 July.

For our Summer 2023 term, we shall be enjoying some old favourites specially picked by members of the choir including World In Union, Do You Hear The People Sing?, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Can You Feel The Love Tonight? and a medley from My Fair Lady.
