KEMS Choir

Welcome to KEMS Choir.

We're a friendly bunch of people who enjoy singing together.

Trained and conducted by our popular, young and talented Choral Director, Ian Chesworth, we extend a warm welcome for enthusiastic 'young at heart' singers (male and female) to join us.

KEMS has its own Orchestra which plays for most of our choral concerts and sometimes we're joined by some of the KEMS Concert Band members - we all enjoy making great music together.

The choir's season opened in September 2010 with rehearsals for a concert in November of Durufle's Requiem in which the choir was accompanied by KEMS Orchestra, who also gave a performance of Elgar ’s Symphony No 1.

The traditional Christmas concert in December 2010, also with KEMS Orchestra, not only comprised the usual mix of Christmas music and carols for audience participation, but also Chilcott's ‘Little Jazz Mass’ which is a great favourite with the choir. Some of the choir members also joined the KEMS Concert Band for Carols in the Courtyard at Tatton Park, Knutsford.

The choral highlight of the 2010-2011 Season for the choir was the performance of Mozart ’s glorious Mass in C minor in April 2011, when the choir was magnificently supported  by KEMS Orchestra.

The season for the choir concluded in June 2011 with participation in the Macclesfield Barnaby Concert singing Carroll's 'A new songs measure' and Berlioz's Apoth éose/Triumphal March with KEMS Concert Band and Orchestra.

Singing in a choir is very rewarding and is great fun too. KEMS are always happy for new singers to join us, without audition. If you fancy joining us please telephone Steve Kleiser (01625 431 544) or send us an e-mail by clicking here.
