The Dr. Henry Wing Memorial Scholarship

---

The scholarship is named in honor of former music director Dr. Henry Wing, who served as the Artistic Director and conductor of the choral society for 30 years. Among his many achievements, he instituted a policy of choosing the vocal soloists from the membership and hiring the best orchestral players from Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine, including faculty and students from the UNH Music Department.  click to download the application packet.

We recognize that some folks who would like to sing with us may find dues and even the cost of music a challenge so RCS has a history of providing member scholarships making it possible for them to participate in the choir. We also have a policy of no dues to all High School and full time college students.

This year we were able to set aside and provide free  concert tickets to the community to distribute to those who might not otherwise be able to attend. If you are someone who is with an organization that might benefit from this program , please write to us at the email below.

A huge thank you to the RCS roving groups who sang christmas carols at the Strawberry Banke Candlelight Stroll weekends

This year we were able to donate professional quality microphones to Exeter High School  " A big THANK YOU to Rockingham Choral Society for purchasing the (4) new Earthworks P-30 Choir mics for Exeter High School.  I used them for the first time last night and they were incredible.  I was pretty floored when I first turned them up while the students did their vocal exercises. Things just got better from there ."
