Now in its 11th season, the Amwell Community Choir is for Islington locals who love to sing.
This term, we'll be rehearsing upstairs in St Mark's Church, Myddelton Square, starting on Thursday 15th May from 8-9.15pm
We're a friendly, open-access choir, which learns and performs traditional and modern arrangements in a relaxed and low-stress way, and you're welcome to come along any week to see what it's like to rehearse with us. There's no audition, recordings are provided for each part, and if you decide to join, it costs just £25 (approx.) for the eight-week term. We also hold a small performance at the end of each term so stay tuned for details about that!
Rehearsals are led by Sarah Gentle, who has lots of experience with conducting choral music. The choir sings in four parts, and this term we'll be learning new music to perform at an evening of music in early July.
