Doncaster Choral Society was formed in 1888 under its earlier name of Doncaster Musical Society. We have over 100 years of tradition in excellent and engaging choral performance, drawing our members from across Doncaster and beyond. We are proud to have around 55-60 active choir members and to perform with leading soloists and musicians from across the region.
We rehearse in Cantley, with the choir being ably supported by our regular accompanist Simon Corner

Please contact Val Stapleton, by email [email protected], if you'd like to come along.

We are very pleased to have already welcomed a number of new members in recent seasons. They have sung with us and then successfully auditioned and are now members of the choir.
