About us

Ross-on-Wye Choral Society was founded in 1967 and has established a reputation for excellent performances of a broadly-based repertoire. We enjoy the support of a loyal audience, for whom a Society concert is something not to be missed.

Our Music Director is Adrian Taylor, who is organist at St. Mary’s.  Adrian has wide experience of choral conducting with a number of different choirs, and he currently conducts the Innsworth Military Wives in Gloucester.  Like many of the best conductors, he also has a large repertoire of amusing stories and anecdotes to provide moments of relaxation during rehearsals.

We normally put on two major concerts a year, one at Christmas and the other in the Spring. Depending on the timing of the Spring concert, we may also stage a more light-hearted event in the Summer.  We perform with professional soloists and accompanists, and at least once a year with a professional orchestra.

This brief video showcases a delightful moment from one of our recent rehearsals as we prepare for our Winter Concert.
Tickets are available for purchase now! Don't miss the chance to join us, either as a member, or for a wonderful evening of music!

The magnificent music of Mendelssohn. We loved the the soloists, what voices!
Together with the orchestra and organist you and your inspiring and energetic conductor gave us a wonderful evening.
