Friends of WCOS
Wells Cathedral Oratorio Society (WCOS) was founded in 1896 and is one of the South West’s leading choral societies. It performs the great choral works with some of the UK’s finest soloists and professional orchestras in the glorious surroundings of the ‘Queen of English Cathedrals’.
Numbering around 100 voices, since January 2023 WCOS has been directed by Alexander Hamilton, Acting Director of Music at Wells Cathedral. We perform at least three significant performances with a varied programme of traditional and more contemporary repertoire.
