Midland Opera Activities

Other Midlands Choral Groups

Many of our members also sing with other groups. Probably the best known is City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra Chorus. Members also sing with Birmingham Choral Union, one of the longest established choirs in the Midlands, and with Birmingham Conservatoire, a full faculty of Birmingham City University, both based in the City. A little further afield, members sing with Brierley Hill Choral Society, a choir with an 80 year history.
