The Oxford Harmonic Society, founded in 1921, is one of Oxford's oldest non-collegiate choirs and one of Oxfordshire’s leading amateur, mixed-voice choral societies. We are a friendly choir with about 120 singing members and welcome talented and enthusiastic singers wishing to join us. Each year the choir performs three choral concerts in Oxford, covering a diverse range of classical music, under the baton of conductor Robert Secret. The main venues for these concerts are the Sheldonian Theatre and Oxford Town Hall. Most concerts also feature professional soloists and the Orchestra of Stowe Opera.

Next concert: the UK premiere of Carl Loewe's Passion Oratorio on Saturday 31 March 2012 in Oxford Town Hall.
