Concerts
40th Anniversary Season –
September 2024 to July 2025
Founded in 1985, the Nottingham Chamber Singers, part of Music for Everyone, are excited to celebrate forty glorious years of choral music-making. Four concerts are planned, and pop-up performances will be coming to a suburb near you!
Our pop-up events will be short, free to attend and in unusual venues. We hope to show how the limitless variety of choral music can move singers and audiences to wonder, joy, peace, tears and laughter, how it can be exhilarating or like a cosy warm blanket. Come and discover how music touches you.
