Musical Director, Forest Row Choral Society
Forest Row Choral Society is seeking to appoint a new musical director from April 2023 as the current MD is retiring.
We are looking for an enthusiastic musical director with a good sense of humour and some experience of working with an amateur/community choir of varying musical abilities.
Background
Forest Row Choral Society is a friendly, non-audition choir of around 50 members.
It was founded in 1962 as the Michael Hall School Choral Society under its first director Cecil Cope. In 1985 Tom Scratchley took over and moved the choir into the centre of the village.
Under his direction FRCS has developed into a true community choir open to all ages.
We are delighted that top British tenor Mark Padmore – who lives locally – is our president and has performed various key roles in FRCS concerts since 2013.
