Christ's Hospital Choral Society
Welcome to Christ’s Hospital Choral Society
of Horsham, West Sussex a choir privileged to rehearse and perform at Christ's Hospital School. Members come from around Horsham and we sing a broad range of music, largely classical.
Our four concerts a year are atmospheric, beautiful, and very enjoyable for both singers and audience.
Tempted to join us? We don't have auditions; just come along, give us a try and see how enjoyable singing can be. See below for further information.
Join Us
We are a choir for adults associated with the famous school near Horsham, West Sussex, formed in 1988 so that members of staff and people from the wider community could sing a range of choral music.
All voices are welcome – Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass
No connection with the school is necessary to belong.
We rehearse on a Tuesday evening at Christ’s Hospital and perform three or four concerts each year.
