Singing with us Our weekly rehearsals are as much about enjoying singing together as they are about learning music. We sing music in parts, and while we do use sheet music, you don't need to be able to read it as everything is taught by ear making it easy for us to learn. Plus, practice tracks are available to help everyone learn their parts. While some people in the choir have lots of singing experience, others had never tried singing in a choir before joining us. There are definitely no auditions!
Performances We perform at a variety of events throughout the year. Some have become annual favourites such as Golcar Lily Day, and the Kirkheaton Arts and Christmas Tree Festivals. We have also sung at events such as Marsden Cuckoo Day, and Marsden Christmas Tree Festival, and we have taken part in joint concerts with other choirs. We like to raise money for local charities at Christmas by carol singing too. Most of our performances are fairly informal and relaxed, so it's not too much pressure!
How to find us Our rehearsals are held in the music room at Colne Valley High School Gillroyd Ln, Linthwaite, Huddersfield HD7 5SP. See the map below for the location of our rehearsal room
Rehearsals are on Thursdays, 6-7pm. The first session is a free taster and after that the fee is £2 per week. Rehearsals run during term time, and we break during school holidays.
