Past Concerts
CHIME has a reputation for the volume of material the choristers learn and the high standard of their performances.

Historically the choir conducts its own concert twice annually. The mid-year concert is often themed, with the Christmas Concert being a morre traditional, family orientated concert.

The following table is indicative of the breadth of material performed.
