In 2021 the St Neots Choral Society was delighted to become the first recipient of the Group Hero Award from Making Music, the UK’s largest leisure-time music community, in recognition of the innovative ways we kept our members engaged during the Covid lockdown. We are proud to announce that Reginald Searle, who has been the Society’s Musical Director since the Society was formed in 1971, was shortlisted for this year’s Lady Hilary Groves Prize. This is awarded to an individual or group (selected by Making Music's Board of Management ) who has made an outstanding contribution to British music. We offer Reg sincere congratulations and thanks for all he does, working with the Choral Society and the St Neots Sinfonia, to promote and perform choral and orchestral works in the St Neots area.
