About us

Welcome to the 2009-2010 season of concerts organised by the Dorking Concertgoers Society, presenting classical music of the highest professional quality for the residents of Mole Valley in the Dorking Halls, a venue that is more than a match for concert halls in London. Our president is the famous countertenor James Bowman.

Over the forty-four years of its existence, the Society has promoted concerts by many famous musicians and orchestras including Angela Hewitt, Natalie Clein, Tasmin Little, Emma Kirkby, Philip Langridge, the Endellion Quartet, the Royal Philharmonic and the London Philharmonic Orchestras. Our present season maintains this high standard. To ensure the continuance of professional classical music in Dorking why not become a MEMBER and a FRIEND or SPONSOR of the Society. Please see 'Join'.
