Ipswich Suffolk, United Kingdom Association of British Choral Directors Full time

Ipswich Choral Society, a SATB choir of some 90 voices, is looking for an enthusiastic, dynamic Director of Music to start work with the choir in January 2025, following the retirement of our current Director. We are an extremely friendly and welcoming choir that includes a range of ages and experience. Founded in 1824, we perform music from the 16th to 21st Centuries, from a cappella to major choral works with professional orchestras and soloists.

We rehearse every Tuesday evening in term times, supported by an accompanist, in the Northgate Arts Centre, Ipswich. We perform two or three concerts each year in venues that include The Ipswich Corn Exchange, Churches and Schools in the Ipswich area, and occasionally at Snape Maltings Concert Hall. We are also regular performers at Ipswich Music Day and at other civic events. On occasion we travel abroad to perform and have links in Italy, Austria and Turkey. 

Please see our website for more information about the choir  

We seek a trained choral and orchestral conductor with:

  • A sense of humour and infectious enthusiasm.
  • Experience of conducting large events and orchestral direction.
  • Excellent choir training and musical skills.
  • A wide knowledge of choral repertoire in its historical context.
  • The ability to work with the choir to programme imaginative and attractive concerts.
  • Organisational and practical planning skills.

The new Director will work with and have the full co-operation of the committee in developing an interesting and challenging programme and in furthering his or her own professional skills.

The position is remunerated in line with currently accepted practice.
