The Huddersfield Singers is renowned for its adventurous and interesting repertoire, and takes pride in performing works by less well-known composers alongside more mainstream pieces. The choir has occasionally commissioned new music, such as for its 125th anniversary concert in July 2000, for which Arthur Butterworth wrote ''Haworth Moor''. Other composers who have written music for the choir, or dedicated pieces to it, include Gustav Holst and John Gardner. The present conductor is Philip Honnor, who has occupied the post since 1990. The choir is a registered charity (number 507768). Note that the Huddersfield Singers should not be confused with the famous, and much larger, ''Huddersfield Choral Society''; the two choirs are entirely separate entities. |
