Thank you for visiting the Chesterfield Philharmonic Choir website. We hope you enjoy browsing our website, and that you find a lot of useful information.
We are based in the historic Derbyshire town of Chesterfield, and are currently over 90 members strong. We put on around four public concerts each year in various venues, including the Church of St Mary and All Saints - otherwise known as the famous Crooked Spire! We also hold an annual Choral Day to which everyone is invited. Please click on the appropriate links for more details.
We invite you to join our mission of promoting, improving, developing and maintaining public education in and appreciation of the art and science of choral music in all its aspects by the presentation of public concerts and recitals. (Registered Charity No 500561).

STOP PRESS: NEW RECORDING - "LOVING KINDNESS"
Recorded virtually by members of Chesterfield Philharmonic Choir, Loving Kindness by Howard Goodall is An Eastern Blessing, a meditative 4-minute work setting a blessing by Mahatma Gandhi. It was composed in 2020 and is "dedicated to the sacrifice and courage of health workers during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic".
CHORAL DAY 2021 - Our Choral Day's in 2020 and 2021 were cancelled, but the new date will be Saturday 4th June 2022. If you have not registered, we will reopen registration later this year. We will let you know when this happens. We will contact individuals who have already registered with details of the new arrangements shortly. Thank you for your continued support!
