We perform mainly classical choral works, recently including works by Poulenc, Kodaly and Haydn. The summer concert is usually much ‘lighter’ e.g.: ‘Pink Champagne’, extracts from ‘Gilbert and Sullivan’ and ‘Songs from the Shows’. Over the last few years we have also sung pieces composed by a member of the society, works arranged by our Musical Director, in conjunction with a children’s choir, and with a jazz band. The Christmas concert generally includes a number of short seasonal pieces, with traditional carols and more unusual music.

Our repertoire is selected by the Musical Director in consultation with the Programme Committee. This committee normally meets annually in January or February to plan the programme for the following year (i.e. 2014 meeting plans for 2015). Each voice part has a representative on the Programme Committee. All ECS members are welcome to suggest programme items, either through their representative or via the Suggestions Book available at the back of the rehearsal hall.
