Faversham Choral Society

Haydn's mighty choral work 'Nelson Mass', originally called the 'Mass for Troubled Times', is now forever associated with Admiral Horatio Nelson’s victory over Napoleon.

Howard Goodall's composition Eternal Light was commissioned in 2008 and has received countless performances since then, making it his most popular large scale choral composition. Written to mark the 20th anniversary of the ensemble London Musici, Goodall’s interpretation of the Requiem, it was also envisaged as a dance piece for the Rambert Dance Company. Traditionally a prayer for the salvation of the departed soul, Goodall’s requiem centres on those who are left behind to grieve.

Future concerts by Faversham Choral Society include a ‘Come and Sing’ Event in June 2018 and participation in a Remembrance Day Concert on Saturday 10 November joining Sittingbourne Orpheus and other choirs to mark 100 years since the end of 1st World War .

Come and join us: We meet in the United Church Hall Preston Street Faversham 7.45pm on Wednesdays. Come and give us a try with no obligation, we are a friendly choir and we don’t have auditions.
