Carlow Choral Society formed in 1965 is a premier community choir based in Carlow Town dedicated to quality performance of choral music. A mixed chorus of approximately 80 members from diverse backgrounds who are drawn to the organisation for both its commitment to performing great choral works together and by fostering a supportive network of social community.
Under the direction of Blánaid Murphy and accompanist Yvonne Collier, our members are from all over Leinster and we perform a Summer concert and a Christmas concert each year as well as the annual ‘Glory of Christmas’ concert in the National Concert Hall. We have a wide repertoire of many choral works such as Handel’s Messiah, Bach’s St. Matthew's & St. John Passion, Verdi’s Requiem, Haydn’s The Creation & Seasons, Brahms Requiem & many more. We sing at home & abroad and in November 2011 we recorded a Christmas CD ‘Joy to the World’.
New members are welcome. We rehearse in St. Patrick’s College, Carlow Monday nights from 7.45-10pm. We continually welcome new singers while valuing those individuals who have been long-term members. A dedicated group of singers who form lifelong friendships through their shared love of music. See Join Us above for more information on joining.
