Keele Bach Choir is one of the
premier North Staffordshire
chamber choirs and celebrated
its 40th anniversary in 2017.
The Choir recruits members
from both within the Keele
University community and
beyond. Despite the name,
singers do not have to be
connected with the University
to join the choir! Their wide-
ranging repertoire extends
from the Renaissance, through
Bach and Brahms, to Bob
Chilcott and our very own
Composer-in-Residence,
Richard Norris. The format of
concerts is varied: sometimes
a cappella, sometimes with
piano accompaniment and
sometimes with professional
orchestra and soloists.
Tickets available:
KBC Ticket line 01782 751018,
Keele Box Office (telephone
or online) and choir members.
