Sing Messiah with The Conroy Collective
We are taking a group of singers to perform in Handel's 'Messiah' at The Royal Albert Hall, London, with 'The Really Big Chorus', in November 2026.
Are you aged 18+ yrs and interested in singing with us at The Royal Albert Hall?
Please complete the form, below.
Here are a few FAQs
When is it? And why do we have to book so early?
Sunday November 8th 2026
Places are limited and usually sell out as soon as they are released (therefore, singers need to express an interest with us before 1st March 2026).
Do I have to be able to read music?
No. We carefully take you through things step by step and you can learn it by ear very easily. We also show you how to follow the score.
When are rehearsals?
Two in May and June, one in July, two in September, October and a final rehearsal in November (usually Thursday evenings, 7.30 - 9.00pm, in Witney).
What if I find it too difficult?
You won’t! Learning in small, bite-size chunks, sessions are relaxed and fun! If there is something you don’t understand in-between sessions, we are always available to help via email and phone. You can even take your music/words into the performance with you too!
Will I be with people I know at the performance?
Yes! All our singers sit together in groups (Sops, Altos, etc) so the people who you have been practising with will be right there, next to you.
Can friends & family come too?
Yes! At the time of booking, we can also book audience seats for them and a place on the coach with you. After that date though, they will need to buy tickets from The Albert Hall direct (if there are any left!)
What does the cost include?
·Reserved singer’s seat at The Royal Albert Hall, London.
·Door-to-door return coach travel from Witney
·A fantastic, memorable experience!
We have two packages available:
1. For singers completely new to The Messiah (includes 10 tuition sessions, music score/ song words, mentoring, guidance & support)
2. For singers who are familiar with The Messiah and have sung it before - either with us, or other groups (includes 4 rehearsal sessions)
