Secrets rushing without sound Crying from your hiding places — Let me go, I cannot bear The sorrow of the passing faces. — People in the restless street, Can it be, oh can it be In the meeting of our eyes That you know as much of me?  less

We sing popular Songs in at least three part harmony and add performance techniques to bring them to life. A weekly hour and a half rehearsal begins with a singing lesson and warm up that provides members with the vocal skills and techniques they need to sing amazing Songs from the world of pop, rock and musical theatre including Songs from Adele, Take That, Erasure and many more favourite artists. The lessons are led by our experienced choir leaders who are professional performers themselves and who are skilled at teaching singing and performance. Anyone can join! No experience necessary, there's no audition and members don't need to be able to read music - they don't even need to have a great voice - just a love of singing! Rehearsals are relaxed and fun with no pressure. Learning is by ear and demonst...    less
