We meet once a week at Sage Cross Methodist Church in Melton Mowbray (behind Morrisons) from 7.30 – 9.30pm.
Every session begins with a short physical and vocal warm up followed by some simple warm up rounds and songs. At the beginning of a new term we start learning new material, so that anyone joining us for the first time will be in the same position as everyone else. This also expands our repertoire which contains well over 100 songs now. The last 30 minutes of the evening is spent re visitng some of our favourites from the existing repertoire to keep them alive and polished. Everything is taught by ear so you don’t have to read music. New members can make use of comprehensive teach material to catch up on songs they have missed out learning with the choir.
There are no auditions, the only requirement is an enthusiasm for singing. You can try your voice with the sopranos, altos, tenors or basses and, if you want to improve your range, move to different sections for different songs.
We perform three times a year, usually at the end of each term. Performance is not compulsory but encouraged and everyone gives each other plenty of support!
Global Harmony Committee
