About Us
BRADFORD FESTIVAL CHORAL SOCIETY is Bradford's largest choir and one of the North of England's longest established choral societies with roots dating back to the first Bradford Festival in 1853. With a current singing membership of around 80 voices the choir performs all the major works in the choral repertoire at St George's Concert Hall and other venues in the Bradford area.
The choir enjoys a busy season of concerts including major programmes in November and early Spring, concerts in the summer and at Christmas as well as Bradford's traditional Christmas performance of Handel's Messiah. The Society has a series of lively social events throughout the year as well engaging in fund raising activities to help maintain the quality of their musical output.
The Society is committed to providing Bradford residents with access to good quality music both through our perfomances and through our outreach work. In recent years this has included working children from a local primary school and also a well attended Come and Sing Mozart's Requiem event in Saltaire.
Bradford Festival Choral Society is conducted by our musical director, Tom Leech. Our accompanist is Alan Horsey. Visit the People section of our website for further details.
