BBC Chorus
The BBC Chorus was a choral ensemble associated with the British Broadcasting Corporation.
BBC choral forces were used for broadcast, concert and recording performances of choral and choral-orchestral repertory.
The name is a general BBC choral designation and should be distinguished from more specific BBC choir names where they are used.
