​Welcome to Cleveland Philharmonic Choir

An inspiring Music Director, John Forsyth MBE, supportive members and great performances are the hallmarks of Cleveland Philharmonic Choir.

A Very Happy New Year to all our members and supporters.

This is a reminder that the choir will start our 2022 rehearsals on Tuesday January 11th at 7:30pm. We will be in a new venue for us, at the "GoMusic" building, Conyers School, Green Lane, Yarm, TS15 9ET.  More details on the arrangements for future rehearsals will be sent to members in the week before Jan 11th.

As a choir, we were delighted to be able to start rehearsals again in September 2021. This follows a long period when we managed to keep our spirits up by regular communications with all members and with virtual, Zoom-based rehearsals and concerts.

In planning for our re-start, we took great care to listen to advice from all quarters, including the Making Music organisation, and to have detailed discussions with staff at St Barnabas church, where we held our rehearsals.  We put in place procedures to minimise Covid19 risk for people in the choir (both senior and junior choirs) and for other users of the church facilities. 

We subsequently performed our first concert since 2019 - the Mozart Great Mass in C Minor.  It was held on November 20th 2021 at Stockton Baptist Church. There are full details on our Previous Concerts page, and you can even view and download a full programme for that concert.

We are now looking forward to starting rehearsals for our next concert, which we hope will be held in Durham Cathedral in spring 2022. Please keep watching our Concerts page for information on that concert as it becomes available.
