Welcome!
North Devon Choral Society was founded in 1952, and is a thriving, friendly choir that performs at least three concerts a year with top class soloists and accompanists, and at least one with a professional orchestra. Have a look at the list on our Concert Archive to see the kind of music we sing.
Concerts are performed throughout North Devon, mainly in Torrington, Braunton and Barnstaple. We aim to use an orchestra at least once a year, and at Torrington Parish Church (St Michael and All Angels) we also have the benefit of their excellent Father Willis organ dating from 1864. Every three years or so, we combine with Bude Choral Society and South Devon Choir to perform a joint concert in Barnstaple and Torbay.
John Hobbs has been our Music Director since 2002, You will find details of John Hobbs on our About Us page and we welcome Lorraine Homewood as our Rehearsal Pianist.
