The Sheffield Philharmonic Chorus is a large mixed voice chorus based in Sheffield. The Chorus sings with leading conductors and orchestras and fulfils a challenging and exciting programme under the vibrant and inspiring leadership of its Music Director, Darius Battiwalla.
The Chorus is a registered charity and currently receives no statutory or corporate funding. Contrary to some popularly held beliefs, SPC is very rarely paid for its performances, either at the City Hall or outside Sheffield. Singing members pay an annual subscription fee to cover the general running costs of the organisation. Additional revenue is required to allow the Chorus to promote and perform top-quality concerts whilst keeping subscription fees within reach of all talented voluntary singers, so that membership is based on musical/singing ability alone and not on members’ financial situation. Only thus can the Chorus’s musical standard be maintained at the highest possible level.
In collaboration with internationally-renowned orchestras such as the Hallé, Manchester Camerata and BBC Philharmonic, it performs high quality, professional standard concerts in Sheffield and further afield.
