Founded in 1896 the society chooses music to appeal to wider audiences and invites children and young people to perform with it

“As the largest choral group in Lincoln, our aim is to share our delight and enjoyment in all genres of choral music and hopefully encourage others to join a choir and experience the love of singing with a group of like minded people.”
