Praised often for our versatility and musicality, SWCS are always happy to hear from members of the audience, whether in Saffron Hall after a concert or on social media - sometimes not even before the end! The professional soloists who sing with us, equally, let us know how we do - why not read some of their comments below?
It was a privilege to sing with such a wonderful choral society, and in such a stunning new venue as the Saffron Hall. Saffron Walden can be proud to have such a musical, friendly and experienced choral society.

Bass Soloist - Verdi Requiem
What an occasion! No one will ever forget the evening nor the spectacular performance of all on the stage.
Councillor Keith Eden
Mayor of Saffron Walden - Verdi Requiem
The choir were strong: committed and passionate, and the orchestra played with gusto. It was a real pleasure to work with Janet too: she did magnificently.
Ben Thapa
Tenor Soloist - Verdi Requiem
Just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed the concert and how brilliantly the Choral Society came across - it was a wonderful occasion and you should all be very proud… we were!
Angela Reed & T Reed & Son
Programme Advertisers - Verdi Requiem
I thoroughly enjoyed singing in the hall and thought the choir and orchestra both rose magnificently to the occasion - we did Verdi proud!
