ABOUT US

We’re a ladies choir with about 30 members:

• 14 first sopranos • 8 second sopranos • 7 altos

 

The choir was established almost 60 years ago.

Some members have been in the choir many years while others have joined more recently. Most are retired. There are no auditions for joining the choir. Some choir members can read music, but many can’t.

​

The Music Director records practice tracks which are shared via Dropbox to help with learning music.

​

We sing mostly secular music; short pieces of music which choir members enjoy including (but not limited to) pop, jazz, show tunes, spirituals, world music.

 

 We do 3-4 concerts each year, typically one per term, on a Saturday night or a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.

Sometimes we share a concert with another local choir or music group.

We occasionally do concerts for local charities too, but not normally more than one or two per year.

 

We do a tour every two years, usually involving just one concert and with plenty of time for social activities.

 

We hold social events during the year eg Christmas meal, coffee mornings and fundraising events.

 

We actively raise funds to support a local charity each year, currently Rugby Food Bank.
