Subscription
The subscription for membership of the choir for 2026 is £230 and £90 for students.
Constanza Chorus is completely self-funding, so your subscription goes towards the hire of the church and fees for the conductor and accompanist as well as our insurance and website costs. The concerts are also self funding, with ticket sales going towards towards costs like venue hire, programme printing, and hiring soloists and orchestras.
As Constanza Chorus is a registered charity, members’ subscriptions and other donations are eligible for Gift Aid.
