After another year of major success, Barnt Green Choral has taken steps to strengthen further both its organisation and capability.  In 1951 the founders would never have dreamed that 75 years later the choir would still be going from strength to strength.  For seven and a half decades the Bromsgrove arts scene has been enhanced by the choir’s splendid renditions of some of the world’s best choral music.

The 2025 – 2026 Season is going to be a massive year of joy, happiness, and celebration for Barnt Green Choral.   It is our 75th anniversary !

Eight members of Barnt Green Choral joined with Bromsgrove Community Choir on Tuesday 1 July 2025 to perform the inventive modern-day cantata ‘AHOY! Sing for the Mary Rose’ at The Artrix Theatre. 

Independent music critic Jamie Morris has reviewed our Sir John Rutter concert and this has been published in today's edition of the Bromsgrove Standard (p19). We thank Jamie for his kind words and once again congratulate Steve Cowperthwaite and all members of the choir on such an outstanding performance.

Everyone really enjoyed the Sir John Rutter 'Celebration' concert on Saturday 5 April. Both his Magnificat and his Requiem are not easy pieces to sing and all members of the choir have worked very hard over the last few months to master them. The standard of performance was high which led to a thrilling performance of thrilling music.
