About the Chorus

Reading Community Singers is a community-based, non-auditioned chorus that recently celebrated its 100th anniversary.  While many members reside in Reading, quite a few singers hail from numerous other municipalities.  Members represent a wide range in ages, backgrounds, and professions.  Some are in their first year of membership; others have sung with RCS for decades.

The RCS repertoire covers a broad spectrum of music, from classical pieces to musical show tunes.  Concerts take place twice a year, during the holiday season and in the spring.  For the 2020 holiday concert, RCS is conducting rehearsals for a virtual performance in December.  Some of the numbers performed include soloists and small groups enhancing the presentation of the entire ensemble.   A guest artist appears at each concert, with the spring concert featuring the most recent winner of the RCS scholarship.
