Welcome to The Orpington Chorale.

We rehearse on Wednesdays at 7.30pm,

at All Saints’ Church, Bark Hart Road, Orpington, BR6 0QD.

Autum term begins on Wednesday September 10th,  when we shall begin rehearsing for our Christmas Concert on December 13th, shared as usual with St James's Catholic Primary School. Works will include Warlock, Rutter, Weir, Parsons, Howells, Britten and Gardner, as well as traditional carols sung with the audience and special performances by the children.

The 2025 Summer concert, featuring Elgar's From the Bavarian Highlands and songs by MacMillan, Schubert, Rameau, Burleigh, Gardiner and Sain-Saens, was well-received by a small but appreciative audience. The term ended with a delightful garden party and barbecue for choir members and their families.

Our April concert was Mendelssohn's Elijah. We held a very successful sing-along of most of the choruses, and were pleased to be joined by new singers and old friends for an afternoon of hard work followed by delectable refreshments.

Come and join us! Orpington Chorale is always keen to welcome new singers, especially male voices. You don't have to be an expert. We are ably taught and encouraged by Dominic Wells, our musical director. Come to a rehearsal and see whether it feels right for you.
