An excellent choral society meeting in Beaminster, Dorset

With a membership of around 40, we are large enough to tackle substantial works - but small enough to concentrate on detail. We are an auditioned choir, which ensures a high standard of performance.
Formed in 1987, Beaminster Singers meets each Wednesday to rehearse for its two concerts per year (usually held in May/June and November/December). The choir takes a break over the summer period. Our repertoire covers well-known classical and romantic music as well as works by living composers.
Choir for hire: for weddings, funerals and special occasions our members can be engaged to perform suitable music. Please use the Contact page to email us for details.
