Welcome to the Choir!

The ‘Phil’, as the choir is affectionately known, plays a significant part in the rich musical fabric of York. The choir loves to sing, and the passion, commitment, and continuity that has sustained it for 81 years is very much in evidence today.

Whether your taste is for contemporary or classical, west-end or opera, folk song or spiritual, the wide repertoire will offer entertainment and pleasure. The choir has won competitions and audience acclaim in many venues from the Royal Albert Hall to Village Halls, from Castle Howard to the Castle Museum and from York Minster to a Dales Chapel.

The strength and success of the choir goes beyond the concert platform, and is heightened by the depth of friendship that exists between members, families, friends and sponsors.

Enjoy your visit to our website, and we look forward to see you soon at one of our many concerts, and of, hopefully, welcoming you to join us as either a singing member or as a friend.

“There’s sure no passion in the human soul,

but finds it’s food in music”
