In recent years, Lewisham Choral Society has been involved in a wide variety of performances.

We have put together a list of these performances below, which show the wide range of music that we perform.

If you would like to know more about our previous concerts, we have also created links to PDF copies of the programmes for some of these performances.

These programmes contain information about the works we have performed, the orchestras and soloists we have worked with and about LCS itself. Programmes are usually included in the ticket price of our concerts.
