The Kemsing Singers, founded in 1964 and based in the village of Kemsing, draws its membership from the broader Sevenoaks district. We are members of the Sevenoaks Community Arts & Theatre CIC (SCAT) and supporters of the STAG Theatre. The choir’s Christmas concert in the STAG on 21st December 1983 was the first concert in the newly opened STAG of any local society. The choir subsequently performed in the STAG at Christmas almost every year until 2004.
The choir gives at least four main concerts each year under its musical director, Sara Kemsley and pianist Peter Young. The choir’s large repertoire includes the major choral classics, but rather than rely on extended choral works, each concert includes shorter items, many on the lighter side of classical music and contemporary arrangements of songs and carols with opera and musicals also represented. Singers and audiences alike enjoy the variety.
Rehearsals take place each Monday (September to May) in St Edith Hall, Kemsing. The Musical Director carries out a friendly audition after about four weeks to establish voice and facility with written music.
New members are always welcome.
