Reading Choral Society

The Reading Choral Society (Reading, PA) was founded in 1875 and with a hiatus during the First World War, has been presenting concerts of large-scale choral works ever since.  Under the baton of current Music Director Graham Bier, RCS rehearses weekly on Tuesdays and offers a season of concerts and events each year in Berks County, PA.  Recent masterworks include the Brahms Requiem, Orff Carmina Burana, Haydn Creation, Rachmaninoff All-Night Vigil, and the Faure Requiem.

RCS takes pride in collaborations and outreach, teaming up in recent years with the Reading Symphony Orchestra, the Ringgold Band,  the Reading Pops, the Penn View Brass Band, the Coventry Singers (Pottstown), and numerous area high school choral programs.  Each spring they present the Gloria Singers, a weekend of massed choir singing with students from the Catholic schools of Berks County.

We hope you enjoy our channel, and if you're in the area, hope to see you at one of our concerts or singing with us!
