Welcome to the website for Hexham Abbey Festival Chorus. This is mainly aimed at those who are currently singing with us to provide all you need to know about rehearsal dates and venues, subscriptions and even online practice tracks. In 2025 we start on Thursday, 15th May at 7:30pm in Corbridge Middle School.
I would arrive a little sooner than 7:30pm though to pick up your music, find a seat and catch up with some friends.
Please look at all the pages provided, particularly about parking round the back of the school.
Voice Tests: Hexham Abbey Festival Chorus has been an auditioned choir for many years but, at the moment, all that is required is a short voice test. These are only required for anyone who has not had one, or an audition, for HAFC before. There is no need to prepare anything beforehand.
Editions: copies will be available to hire or you might prefer to purchase your own.
Mozart Requiem - Bärenreiter
Britten - Boosey and Hawkes (a more recent reprint looks different but it is the same on the inside!)
AGM: This will take place during the rehearsal on the 5th June.
