Our next concert:
We are a friendly and welcoming non-auditioned community choir, some 60 voices strong, singing mainly classical choral music. We rehearse every Monday evening (from September to June) in Horam, and give at least two concerts a year, normally in the State Hall. Although we're a community choir, we use professional soloists and orchestras. There are no auditions, and we welcome those who have not sung before. Although it helps to read music, it's not essential.
As well as our main concerts, we also exchange visits with the choir in Heathfield's twin town of Forges-les-Eaux in Normandy, and regularly support other events within the community. If you're interested in having a go, please see our "Join Us" page or click here - we're sure you'll enjoy it, even if you've never sung with a choir before!
