Handel’s Samson
Our next concert is a performance of Handel’s Samson on Saturday 1st April 2023 with orchestra and soloists. Blind and in chains, can the hero Samson summon the strength for one last desperate act? Join us to hear one of Handel’s finest dramatic works.
Rehearsals start on Thursday 5th January in Hailsham Community Hall. If you would like to find out more about singing with us, please see here. New members are very welcome.

Robert Milnes reviews our November 2022 concert
Hailsham Choral: Musical Triumph at All Saints
How appropriate that Hailsham Choral Society, under their inspiring conductor Jozik Kotz, should choose to perform Haydn’s great “Mass in the time of fear” (also known as the “Nelson” Mass) at this particular moment in time.
New Members Wanted!

About us
We are a choir of about 60 singers based in Hailsham, East Sussex.
You can find references to a choral group in Hailsham from the early 1930s, but it faded from view during the war - they probably had even more troubles recruiting tenors and basses then! The present Society was founded in 1961 and still going from strength to strength.
We perform at least four main concerts during the year, with programmes featuring anything from Bach (Christmas Oratorio, St. John Passion) to Beatles, Rossini (Petite Messe Solennelle) to Gershwin, Rutter (Requiem, Magnificat, carols) to Rogers and Hart.
We’re a sociable lot too, music workshops, coffee mornings, quizzes, even the odd pint of beer or glass of wine (or two)!
If you’re looking for a fast way to increase your circle of friends, as well as an opportunity to sing hugely enjoyable music go to the ‘Join Us’ page.
