Meanwood Valley Urban Farm, Sugar Well Road, Leeds LS7 2QG

Join us at the farm to sing together and celebrate nature through folk songs from the British Isles and across the world.

We (Jade & Alana) teach aurally, predominantly without lyrics or sheet music, so please don’t be put off if you feel like you have no formal experience in singing. Everyone is welcome! We sing folk songs from across the world, from the British Isles to Cuba and beyond, usually in three- or four-part harmony.

Wednesday evenings in term time, 6.00 - 7.30pm

The Swan Theatre, Worcester WR1 3ED

Born out of Sing for Health, the Feel-Good Chorus is an uplifting, open-to-all singing group of  30 plus voices based in Pershore, Worcestershire and a new group in Worcester. We sing a fun and varied repertoire of songs, some you will know well, some will be unknown to you, in up to 4-part harmony. Many of these singers have been part of ‘Sing for Health’ for some time and were sounding so marvellous and having such a good time that a ‘choir’ group was the natural progression! Since that move we have been joined by other members of the community – it is a really joyous group! We are recruiting now, particularly in our new group in Worcester; come and give us a try!

Tuesday afternoons between 2 - 3.30pm in Pershore and Tuesday mornings from 10 - 11.30 at The Swan Theatre in Worcester

1101 Bay Ridge Avenue, Annapolis, MD 21403

The Freedom Choir invites singers to experience the power and joy of singing in harmony. Led by musician and vocalist Elizabeth Melvin, songs are taught by rote or by call and response.  Lyrics and recorded learning tracks are provided for members on the choir website.

Singers are thrilled at how easy it is to improve their musical skills when singing in a harmony section with others. Beautiful 3- and 4-part harmonies quickly unfold as the group comes together to sing in a safe, supportive and relaxed atmosphere.

The repertoire draws from an amazing variety of sources, including South African freedom songs, Irish blessings, Southern gospel, African American civil rights songs, rounds, chants and originals written by Elizabeth Melvin.

The Freedom Choir meets in two locations to choose from, twice a week. (Wednesday mornings, Annapolis and Thursday evenings, Severna Park, MD). The choir is not affiliated with any specific religious creed and seeks to build a community of caring people united by the experience of sharing song.

Fees are charged for each multi-week session and payment plans are available. A sliding scale is available, and no one will be turned away for lack of funds.

Wednesdays, 11am - 12 noon or Thursdays, 7:30 - 8:30pm

The Gettin’ Higher Choir seeks to embrace and celebrate humanity’s highest aspirations through music, welcoming people of all ages and backgrounds. We are not associated with any particular religion or spiritual path.

There is no audition, and no vocal experience is required, just a desire to sing in harmony with others.

Our aim is to re-integrate singing into the daily routines of life. We sing for the pure joy and pleasure it gives us, in an atmosphere that is fun, relaxed, and accepting. Our repertoire consists of both traditional and new songs from many cultures. The majority are sung a cappella (unaccompanied voices only) in 4-part harmony.

The choir is directed by Cathy Baker and Dick Jackson. There are 3 sessions available each week:

• Tuesday – in-person and on Zoom -7-9pm Pacific Time
• Wednesday – drop-in on Zoom – 7-8.30pm
• Thursday – on Zoom, with at least 4 singers broadcasting to everyone else – 7-8.45pm
