Location

Fownhope, Herefordshire

Description

A series of Seasonal Community Folk Choirs through the year, with song sharing in the spring, summer, autumn and winter – including some fun with Herefordshire Carols (collected by Ella Mary Leather) and ‘Village Carols’ from the Sheffield tradition in the run up to Christmas.

These are short burst choirs of 4 weeks at a time, with a focus on seasonal and local traditional songs – as well as rounds and simple warm up songs from the global folk tradition.

This is an opportunity to sing for pleasure in a relaxed & friendly group atmosphere – singing for the love of singing – and for enjoyment of folk song and community.

All songs will be taught by ear, and no experience is necessary. All voices are welcome, there is no audition, and no-one will be asked to sing on their own. No music reading is required.

Our next seasonal Choir is in October 2024, with 4 evenings of song open to everyone.

Join us on Thursdays 7 – 8.30pm, on the 3rd, 10th, 17th and 24th October. Email Kate for more details and to book a place.

Session times

Thursday evenings, 7 - 9pm through October 2024.
