The Choir
Doncaster Choral Society was formed in 1888 under its earlier name of Doncaster Musical Society. We have over 100 years of tradition in excellent and engaging choral performance, drawing our members from across Doncaster and beyond.
We are proud to have around 50-60 active choir members and to perform with leading soloists and musicians from across the region. We were delighted to be able to appoint Matt Beckingham in 2023 as our new Musical Director.
Our programme for 2023-24 is themed around 'Hope' and we have four concerts over the season in November, December, March and May. In December, our members also usually sing carols at a church service and at the Woolmarket, Doncaster.
We rehearse in Cantley, with Matt and the choir being ably supported by our regular accompanist Simon Corner, and this year we are performing our concerts in St Jude's Church, Hexthorpe.
