Community choirs. Harmony singing, improvisation and vocal technique.
Hello!
I\’m Rachel, a singer around Wallingford who loves to teach harmonies. I have over ten years’ experience running choirs and singing groups in my spare time. I directed my workplace choir for five years, born out of our need for something creative to do, leading to numerous local performances and a lot of fun rehearsing in lunchbreaks. After that I ran a weekly singing group for the Benson day centre for two years, and briefly ran choirs on behalf of SingForce and Singing Mamas before lockdown in 2020. Alongside an illustrious career in soil testing, I now focus on what I love to do most: leading people in song, especially if they have limited experience, have been told they can’t sing, or just want to let go and have fun. I have some musical training, but mainly do it because I love it and can’t help it.
I\’m also the proud lead singer of folk-funk band The Night Herons. You can see what I\’m up to with them here: www.thenightherons.com

A relaxing and uplifting singing session with beautiful harmonies taught by ear. No sheet music or homework, just turn up and let loose! I teach music in many styles and languages, layering up simple parts to build beautiful music all without accompaniment.
Open to all, from near and far and all abilities. Great fun for “non-singers” and singers alike. Discover your voice and enjoy making music. Parents are most welcome to bring small children with them (please bring whatever they need, but the singing is for you!).
