Welcome to Stone Choral Society!
We are a mixed choir of around 70 singers based in the Midlands canal town of Stone in Staffordshire. We are a friendly group, generally performing 3 to 4 concerts a year in and around the town.
We will be rehearsing on Thursday nights in term time at Manor Hill First School, Manor Rise, Stone and sing a wide range of music, from Bach to Britten, madrigals, folk songs and show tunes.
How To Join
We are always on the lookout for new members! If you would like to sing with the choir, we offer the first term free to new members. In addition, we offer free membership to people in full time education, and people under 21 get the first year free.
