Some interesting  information……

We are a real community Choir – members range from 30 years to almost 90!  Truly inter-generational with a good mix of choral singing experience.

 Auditions not required.  This demonstrates the dedication and commitment to learn often very challenging pieces by ear.

Wide musical repertoire – ranges from classical pieces (ie Vivaldi’s Gloria, Handel’s Messiah and opera choruses toWest Endmusicals, Beatles’ hits and traditional folk music, etc).

People come from all over Trafford and surrounding areas to be in Choir.

Emphasis on having fun is a major factor in Choir’s philosophy, although they take their singing very seriously.  Everyone aims to be the best they can be.  Music, especially choral singing, is very uplifting and energising.

Choir members are given practise CDs for rehearsal purposes to help them learn new pieces of music if they wish.   

Good way to expand social circle and make new friends.  The Choir also occasionally organises social events including meals out, theatre trips, etc.

Choir performs in churches, schools, care homes, etc.  (They raised almost £800 for two charities when singing at the Trafford Centre for an evening just before Christmas).                                          

The Choir has three very accomplished musicians – Conductor, Julie Parker, is a Royal School of Music-trained singer, accompanist Gareth Curtis is an Open University tutor in music and deputy accompanist, Mary Johnson, who is a former junior school music teacher and Royal Academy of Music-trained.
