WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?

Relaxation, breath work, simple vocal technique, voice liberation and a variety of songs to lift our spirits and free our voices in informal, friendly company.

Group members are invited to sing at local, public festive events and to share our songs with friends and family at the end of term.

We sing a wide variety of songs in harmony and unison, and practice technique to relax and develop our voices - with the focus on creativity and fun.

Who is it for?

• Anxious beginners are warmly encouraged
• Current singers looking to refresh and keep in practice
