What's On

Come and enjoy a great day's singing in Burgess Hill

Burgess Hill Choral Society remains at the forefront of local music making and we were delighted at the very warm reception as well as great reviews we received for our latest concert in April.

Details of the Workshop

If you enjoy choral singing and want to learn more about some beautiful music in a relaxed setting why not join us for our forthcoming one-day choral workshop on Saturday, June 14 in the lovely setting of St John’s Church, Burgess Hill. 

We are delighted to be singing choruses from Carl Orff’s enormously popular  Carmina Burana and Rutter’s glorious Magnificat and shall be led by the renowned Michael Stefan Wood BEM, with Phillip Sear providing great accompaniment. 

Many readers will be aware how good a teacher Mike is, as he was Head of Music for many years at what is now The Burgess Hill Academy. He has boundless enthusiasm and manages to help us achieve high standards of performance, but our singing with the choir always remains great fun.

The feedback from similar workshops we have held in the past has been highly positive. Here is a selection of comments from participants:

"An excellent first experience of such a day”
