The audience and choir enjoyed a glorious evening of choral music in the Wellington College Chapel on Sat night. The concert featured Haydn's stunning  Missa in Augustiis, arguably his greatest single composition which is also known as the Nelson Mass. This nickname was acquired due to the coincidence of its first performance being shortly after Nelson's great victory over Napolean, at the Battle of the Nile in 1798.

The choir was joined by Wellington College Parent Singers and four talented soloists from Royal Holloway College, all ably supported by an accomplished string quintet and organist. Other pieces were Mozart's Ave Verum, Schubert's 'Where Thou Reignest' and a beautiful Bach organ recital which showcased a talented Wellington pupil.

Thank you, as ever,  to our Music Director Simon Williamson, Accompanist Jack Thompson and to Wellington College for its continued support of Crowthorne Choral Society.

Our next concert will be on June 14th and, in a complete change of mood,  will feature songs from the musicals, with the theme of 'At The End Of The Day'.

Tickets will be on sale from 1 May and we look forward to seeing you there.

PURCHASE TICKETS from 1 May 2025
