Birmingham Festival Choral Society performs two choral masterpieces, forged in the musical capital as the Classical era blended into the Romantic. Experience an evening of emotional depth and spiritual majesty as our choral singers, vocal soloists, and pianists bring to life Mozart’s enigmatic Requiem and Beethoven’s radiant Mass in C major.

PAST CONCERTS:

From June 2020 to July 2021 we rehearsed on Zoom, due to the pandemic. We produced five online performances, recorded by singers individually at home, and blended into a virtual choir by Gareth Howell. These ‘virtual choir’ recordings can be viewed on our You Tube channel.
