Portishead Choral Society | Making music in the community since 1955

President: Pamela Rudge, GRSM(Hons), ARCM
Registered Charity No: 1039773

Portishead Choral Society is a friendly, medium-sized, choral society with close links to the local community. Currently we have about eighty members, drawn mainly, but not exclusively, from Portishead. We are dedicated to singing and providing performances of mostly classical music in four voice parts (soprano, alto, tenor and bass).

We are delighted to be singing together again after the break enforced by the COVID pandemic. We will start rehearsals for the 2022-23 season at Portishead Methodist Church, on Thursday 8th September, starting at 7.30pm, and are looking forward to welcoming back more members following the COVID pandemic.

Sing with us!

Maybe you have been thinking of joining a choir? Like many other choirs, our membership was affected by the pandemic. Our numbers were quite high (nearly 80), and we are now aiming to get back to where we were. There are vacancies in all sections (especially tenors and basses), and there are no auditions. New members will be most welcome – please see the Join us page if you are considering becoming a member.

Our concert plans for the 2022-23 season are:

December 2022: date and programme to be advised, but will almost certainly include carols! Unfortunately, our planned performance of Britten’s St Nicholas has had to be postponed until 2023.
25 March 2023: The Creation, Haydn
10 June 2023: Porgy and Bess (Concert version), Gershwin

Please see this post for more information on our plans for 2022-23.
