Looking to our 2025 / 2026 season 


We finished this season with a fantastic concert of Telemann, Caroline Shaw and JS Bach at Douai Abbey on Saturday 12th July, successfully collaborating with musicians from Concerts in Caversham.  

After our summer break, we return to our singing in September with our first concert of the new season on Saturday 8th November featuring Gerald Finzi's Requiem da Camera and other pieces.  This concert is kindly sponsored by Finzi Friends.

Before that, we are holding a Workshop on Saturday 18th October, singing Mozart's Mass in C minor with our Music Director, Daniel  Mahoney.    This will not only be a fabulous day's music making but also give you the chance to get a taste of Reading Bach Choir and our Music Director were you to be interested in joining the choir.

You can find all our concert and other event dates here.




We are recruiting


This accomplished choir performs a wide range of choral music, ancient and 
modern, with a particular focus on challenging and rewarding new music. Recent concerts have included works by Caroline Shaw, Reena Esmail, Margaret Bonds and Saunder Choi as well as more familiar composers such as Byrd, Tomkins, Vaughan Williams and of course J.S. Bach. We recently performed an exhilerating UK premier of Kile Smith's The Arc in the Sky.

We are looking for new members with a high standard of singing and musicianship who are interested in challenging themselves musically in a friendly and aspirational environment, led by our Music Director Daniel Mahoney. If that sounds like you, please come and join us for a few rehearsals to try us out. If you enjoy the experience and want to stay with us, we will arrange a short audition.

We rehearse on Tuesdays at 7.30pm in St Andrews Church, Caversham RG4 7PL.
If you are interested, please contact: membership@readingbachchoir.org.uk or go to the 'Sing with Us' tab at the top of this page and select 'Join the Choir' and 'FAQs'.
