Due to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic face-to-face rehearsals have been suspended. We are following government rules as the situation improves and hope for a return to normal choir activities in September. Watch this space for updates.
During the COVID pandemic Ryton Chorale have produced a number of "virtual" choir recordings. You can find the links to these on the Recent Events tab.
We are currently planning for concerts to recommence in late 2021, if restrictions allow. Our concert calendar follows. This is subject to amendment.
