Welcome to the Danesborough Chorus
Founded in 1975, the Danesborough Chorus is a choral society with around 100 members drawn from across south-west Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes. Under the baton of Ian Smith, we're one of the finest amateur choral societies in the area, aiming to perform a varied repertoire, from Monteverdi to newly-commissioned works, with professional soloists and orchestras.
Danesborough Chorus performs three concerts each season, usually in November, March and June. We have an exciting programme in
2019-20 and look forward to welcoming you to St Mary's Parish Church, Woburn on Saturday 28 March 2020 for a veritable feast of Baroque masterworks by Georg Philipp Telemann and Antonio Vivaldi, plus a moving piece by Cecilia McDowall, a composer with "a communicative gift very rare in modern music".
Join us ! If you'd like to sing with us, please contact our Membership Secretary (details below). Come along for a few weeks to see if we're the right choir for you. Rehearsals for our Easter concert begin on Wednesday 8 January 2020. Basses particularly welcome.

"We would like to say a big 'thank you' for the music and singing at our wedding last Friday.
It was just perfect! Our guests commented that it was like a fairy tale. It was far better than we could have hoped for.
Thank you so much for making our day perfect."
Sofia & Jim, October 2019
