Welcome to Pershore Choral, we are a thriving amateur mixed choir of about 70 voices comprising; Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass sections.
Pershore is a beautiful Georgian market town in Worcestershire situated on the River Avon. Our concerts, usually three each year, are performed in the historic Pershore Abbey. Pershore Choral was founded in 1949 as the Pershore W.I. Choir, later with the need for male voices for a performance of Handel’s Messiah, Pershore Choral, formerly Pershore and District Choral Society, was born.
