Back for another term!
We are delighted to invite you to sing with us throughout our 2024 spring term.
We welcome all those who wish to sing to a high standard of choral music and are prepared to attend regular rehearsal sessions leading to concert performances with, where appropriate, professional soloists and orchestra.
Although we do not audition, being able to sight read music is desirable, but not a requirement. In addition, previous choir experience, although not necessary, would be an advantage.
