      Most Improved Chorus Awards.

A fantastic weekend was spent in Gateshead at the Annual Chorus Convention where we won the Most improved Chorus Award. In doing so we improved our score by 60 marks and took ourselves up five places in the score table. Well done to all for their hard work. Extra rehearsals certainly paid off!

The costumes looked great thanks to Liz our very hard working costumier. We looked great and felt good in them !

So, ladies, the only Way is Up !!!!

Our singing

Our songs are arranged in four-part unaccompanied harmony - in the ACapella, or 'barbershop', style - it is different from any other style of Choral singing. Vocal coaching and encouragement is provided by Chorus Director Anya Peat to enable the chorus to produce this special sound. Members need to be able to hold a tune and learn their part by heart. Our unique sound consists of 4 voice parts, namely Lead (they sing the melody), Tenor, Baritone and last but not least Bass, so whatever your voice range we have a 'part' for you. Learning is aided by teaching tapes. Performance packages contain songs from the 1920s to the modern day. Some contain choreography - all are great FUN!!
