Southampton Operatic Society has a Concert Group which is available to provide high quality, entertaining concert performances. Over recent years it has performed for many local venues and charities, including Save the Children, Lions Clubs and Rotary clubs and can provide a wide-ranging choice of musical styles and repertoires, whether you are looking for a general theme or a more bespoke offering to fit a particular occasion.
Recent concert menus have included:
- Songs From the Shows;
- Valentines’ Evening;
- Songs From the Wars;
- Heroes and Villains;
- James Bond Night;
- Last Night of the Proms; and
- Italian Music Night
Our concert group performers include many of the very best voices in the Society’s membership and can bring you an evening of comedy, high drama or operatic fireworks, as you require, and all at very reasonable rates. We typically field between 8 and 25 singers according to the occasion and venue.
Although our performers are all willing volunteers only too happy to help the Society’s charitable fundraising, we do have to cover the cost of rehearsal venues, accompanists and music. We will therefore suggest a suitable donation to reflect the amount of work and rehearsal necessary to meet your requirements. We will discuss this cost with you when you make your inquiry and in appropriate cases may come to see you at your venue, go through a possible programme with you or even design an à la carte menu with you, in which case we are likely to ask you for small booking deposit.
Over recent years the Society has helped charities raise over £28,000, mainly through providing a song and supper show. So if you are looking to have an entertaining evening of song and laughter for your own amusement or to raise funds for your charity or even if you just need some singers for a special event, we have the team for you!
