Welcome to the Richmondshire Choral Society website

Our Mission Statement

Our mission is to enable local people to perform great choral music, both familiar and challenging, supported by a professional conductor and accompanist, while enjoying the physical, mental and social value of belonging to a choir.

Our website serves several purposes:

• It tells you about us if you would like to join us or become a Friend of RCS

• It gives more general information about us

• It tells you about our concerts upcoming and past

• Tickets are on sale here from TicketSource for our concerts in the six weeks or so before the date
• It has information to help our choir members 

• It has photographs of the choir

​We hope you'll find what you want in it somewhere. If not, please contact us to ask.

Autumn Term

For our Autmn Term we are singing Mozart Requiem and Poulenc Gloria.

The concert will be on 19 November in St Mary's Church, Richmond.

Covid measures

We will be maintaining minimum anti-Covid measures when term starts. Hand sanitiser will be available and seating will still be slightly separated but the Committee felt, on discussion, that the mid-rehearsal tea break added greatly to the social aspect of choir membership and should be restored.

However, it was also recognised that some members may still not wish to mingle closely with other members during a break and they will be welcome to remain in the church area with a drink if they wish.

Similarly any member who wishes to continue wearing a mask will not be discouraged from doing so.

Please keep checking this page for updates. Although we will send out information by email, we have found that it does not get to all members.

The Poll below

Our polls are just for fun. Nothing is recorded other than the number of people who have made each choice. They will make no difference to the running of the choir, though may indicate a topic that needs to be addressed! (Not the current poll)
