Welcome!
Welcome to the Warwick and Kenilworth Choral Society (WKCS) web site.
We are a friendly non-auditioned choir over 100 strong.
We are always pleased to see new members, and perform four concerts each year.
We will be re-starting our rehearsals following the summer break on
Monday 5th September 2011 at Coten End School Warwick at 7:30 pm when we
will commence the choir year rehearsing for our Elijah concert on
19th November 2011. Please click here
for details of forthcoming concerts and how to purchase tickets.
The WKCS was formed in 1953 following the joint Messiah
concert held by the two separate choirs of the Warwick and Kenilworth
societies in May of that year. The newly formed choir gave its first concert, a
performance of Bach's Christmas Oratorio
under the baton of 'Tim' Tunnard, on New Year's Day
1954 at St Mary's, Warwick, which remained the choir's main venue for many years.
We are a registered charity and are grateful to our subscribers and
sponsors for their continued support. The Society is affiliated to the
National Federation of Music Societies (now known as Making Music), which
represents and supports amateur vocal, instrumental and promoting societies
throughout the United Kingdom.
