Founded in 1905, Thurrock Choral Society has been singing, under a variety of names, for over 100 years. Today, the choir consists of around 30 singers. Rehearsals take place from 7:30 to 9:30pm (with drinks break) every Wednesday evening at the Church Hall of Grays Parish Church (click for map).
Here at TCS, new members are always very welcome. There are no auditions! To find out more about becoming a member, have a look at the 'Join TCS' page.
We give several concerts a year: two with orchestra, a Christmas concert with Brass Band, and our 'Summer Soiree' - this is a mainly social evening at which the choir delivers popular repertoire alongside guest performers. Works performed in recent years include the Mass in C by Beethoven, the German Requiem by Brahms, an all-Mozart programme including the Requiem, The Creation by Haydn and Brahms's Zigeunerlieder.
The choir also holds several social events each year, all of which are open to non-members. Please visit the 'contact us' page to email us for further details.
