Nelson Choral Singers

Welcome to the Nelson Choral Singers

The Nelson Choral Singers has been entertaining Nelson residents for many years. We are a large non-audition choir that presents concerts twice a year, at Christmas and in the spring. We perform a wide variety of music both secular and sacred and welcome anyone who likes to sing to our ranks. We like to encourage and support other choirs in the area, inviting them to perform with us in our concerts, delighting our audiences with a variety of performances and styles, as well as providing an opportunity and venue for smaller choirs to display their repertoire.

About NCS

We are a mixed SATB choir of approximately 60 voices. Previous musical experience including the ability to read music would be helpful, but is not required. You will be guided through our program of music under the sure hand of director Kathleen Neudorf, and your fellow choristers.
