Lincolnshire - with choirs in Lincoln, Horncastle, Woodhall Spa, Louth and Nettleham
I run community choirs around Lincolnshire singing a variety of unaccompanied songs.
With a lifelong passion for singing and working in communities, I lead community choirs across Lincolnshire, focussing on building stronger communities by singing together. I lead choirs in Louth, Horncastle, Lincoln, Nettleham and Woodhall Spa and we sing a range of songs in harmony and unaccompanied.
Birchwood Sings is a fun and friendly singing group open to anyone that wants to sing! Everyone is welcome from new singers to experienced singers.
Set up in January 2016, we have worked with people across the Birchwood, Doddington Park, Hykeham and Lincoln City to encourage them to sing.
You don’t need to be able to read music, everything is taught by ear. We cover a wide range of songs and there should be something to suit everyone’s’ taste. We sing pop, choral, jazz, folk and everything in between.
For those members of the choir who want to, we perform at a variety of functions across the year including regular performances at the Lincolnshire Show, and the Festive Food and Drink Fair as well as supporting local events.
Check our Facebook page or for more information, contact birchwoodsings@gmail.com or use the contact form.
Thursdays 1-3pm
Horncastle Community Choir is based on simple but effective principles: everyone is encouraged and supported to sing, and everyone is learning to be a better singer. We don’t judge, audition or criticise singing in any way, but celebrate what our voices can do and how we can make them stronger and more confident. Our repertoire includes lots of well-known songs, 20th century standards and classics, as well as choruses, well known songs and sacred pieces that have stood the test of time. We sing from word sheets, sometimes using music notation to help everyone get confident with “dots” and the songs are supported by sound files so you can listen at home or in the car.
Some members of the choir perform together – sometimes just as Horncastle Community Choir and sometimes alongside other choirs. But performing is only one aspect of the choir – no-one performs unless they want to. You’ll always be encouraged, but never expected! Performing is always enjoyable and stress-free; and we don’t sing in competitions or places where people want to judge or criticise singing. Performances are varied and include community and charity events, in churches, on street corners and across Lincolnshire.
Mondays 7.30 - 9.00pm
