Northampton Bach Choir
 
Hear Us
 
The Northampton Bach Choir is one of the foremost choruses in the region, and the largest choir in the county, numbering some 130 singers.

It owes its formation to Denys Pouncey, a former organist of St Matthew’s Church, giving its first concert there on Palm Sunday 1935. During its time it has nurtured a series of young, enthusiastic, not to say visionary, musical directors, many of whom have gone on to forge careers of national and international significance....

  We perform at least 3 concerts a year, plus a Christmas concert, at various venues in Northampton including St.Matthew’s church, The Cripps theatre and The Derngate. You can find details of our next concert, and how to buy tickets, under the Concerts menu for this year, or by clicking the banner above. We look forward to welcoming you.
