We are actively looking to recruit new members of any experience to join us. The focus of the club is to become one of the premier acapella choruses in the UK. You do not need any singing experience or be able to read music in order to join us. We provide all the resources you will need to assist your learning experience and enable you to become an integral part of the chorus.
How do we learn to sing?
Teach Tracks -
these are sound tracks that focus on an individual part, if you're someone who learns by ear then this is a very useful aid.
Sectionals -
occasional rehearsal nights for individual sections led by the section leader where learning is targeted at your voice part.
Guest Directors -
occasionally we freshen the mix by inviting guest directors along, we have been coached by directors of international medal winning choruses and by members of gold medal winning quartets.
Voice Coaching -
a private experience with one of our music directors focussing on individual improvement, usually part of rehearsal night.
Singing technique -
on rehearsal nights we focus on technique and sound blending, not only do we need to sing the right notes, the way in which we produce the sound also counts. Valuable knowledge to carry forward wherever your singing journey takes you.

Joining the chorus can give you skills that are valuable in the wider world. Singing in a section within a chorus needs teamwork and collaborative learning. Delivering a song to the audience needs communication and presentation. Learning to sing and perform builds confidence - and it's all done in an enjoyable and fun way !
