We are a friendly, non-auditioned choir that  generally performs 4 concerts to a high standard each year in Royston and the surrounding villages. Our musical director is Andrew O'Brien and he is assisted by Jonathan Lilley. 

Formed in 1973 we celebrated our first 50 years a couple of seasons ago and are now enjoying our next 50 years of music making in the area. The choir numbers nearly 100 singers.

We engage fine professional soloists for our major concerts and are able to call on an excellent pool of orchestral players. 

For the season 2026/27 we have a theme for our concerts of Out of Darkness, Light. The dates and programme outline are on this season flyer:

The Society will be performing their annual Christmas Concert on 12th December at 7.30pm in St John the Baptist, Royston.
The centre piece of this year's concert will be On Christmas Nightby Bob Chilcott. This is a sequence of 8 carol settings that follow the sequence of the Christmas story - from the fall of Adam, through the promise of a child's coming and journey of Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem, to the birth of the baby Jesus.
There will also be the usual traditional carols for the audience to join in.
