The Choir Broughton Community Choir is not a conventional choir. We welcome everyone even if they think they can't sing. The emphasis of the group is on having fun while singing. We offer a supportive environment for anyone wanting to develop their singing skills and find that the choir is enjoyed The choir both by beginners and by more established singers who all enjoy the pleasure of singing together. Reading music is not necessary as all our songs are taught, but music is provided for those who prefer and support is given to those who need help developing music reading skills. The choir is run as a series of sessions alternating between Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Some people come to all the sessions, some for just the Tuesday or the Wednesday nights, and some just pop along when they can make it. Guests are always welcome to come for a single night. This Click on the area above to see the choir singing produces a friendly group who sing with pleasure and enthusiasm which in turn makes for an uplifting experience, and a really nice sound! The Music We sing a wide range of music. Some of the songs we sing are in parts, either in traditional Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass, or just with different sets of people singing different lines. We also sing a lot of rounds that build up people's confidence and are great fun to sing. We always sing unaccompanied which people think is hard, but actually in this kind of group it works very well, and it is excellent for developing the confidence of singers. The music we sing covers a lot of different styles too. This includes songs from Britain, Eastern Martin who leads the choir Europe and Africa, folk songs, spirituals, protest songs and pop songs. The main criterion for choosing music is that it should be rewarding to sing.  The People The choir is made up wide range of people.
