The choir’s foremost passion is gospel music, but its repertoire includes music from a range of genres. Under the enthusiastic leadership of Gareth Fuller, the music director, the choir rise to the challenges Gareth sets and consistently achieves a high standard of choral singing.
The community aspect of their work is important. The choir sings with different groups such as people suffering from dementia, and in support of local charities.
Anyone can join the choir. No auditions are held because musical experience is not necessary. All that is required is a willingness to embrace the music, work diligently, welcome the challenges and be part of a fun-loving group of people who enjoy being together.
