East Cornwall
Bach Choir

Welcome to our website where we look forward to sharing the great gift of music with you all

The East Cornwall Bach Choir is a registered charity which has been promoting a love of music since 1965. We are an auditioned choir of amateur singers, currently about 30 strong, based in Liskeard, East Cornwall. Bach features in many programmes but the choir also performs a wide range of music from the choral repertoire. ECBC usually gives three concerts a year in Spring, Summer and at Christmas; please check the Concerts page for details of forthcoming events. The choir employs a professional conductor throughout the year and professional instrumentalists and singers for the concerts.

A particular highlight of our year is our Choral Singing Day, which is open to all. We meet on a Saturday in early spring to rehearse a work from scratch followed by an informal performance in the evening. This is well-supported by individuals and local choirs and for many it provides a stepping-stone to membership of ECBC.

The president of the choir is the internationally renowned bass-baritone Stephen Varcoe, and the vice presidents are Baroness Judith Jolly and Peter Stephens.
