Emily's Choirs
Emily's Choirs
During the Covid-19 crisis I am offering to run my singing groups and choirs for a flexible or voluntary fee. If you feel able to support my work, you may that in several ways:
1) Leave me a tip and a message using the Ko-fi button on the right:
Feisty Choir
Membership is currently full. Get in touch to go on a waiting list.
Repertoire
Expect strong contemporary song by living women writers written for women's acapella voices with new takes on lullabies, work-songs, songs of protest and songs of nature, alt-folk with a twist, and also global harmony which resonates, charms, inspires and surprises.
Would you like to sing songs that might be fierce, pointed, profound and joyful?
Would you call yourself a confident singer able to stay in tune with others?
Can you move in time and sing at the same time?
Can you hold a musical part alongside others singing in different harmony?
Can you commit to putting in a bit of practice at home whilst working towards a performance?
This is not a traditional choir/rock choir community choir or ladies barbershop - there will be no matching T-shirts or floaty scarves!
It's a bit different. Come and sing with us.

Comments
Come and find out about what we do and whether you can meet the stipulations above. This is not a choir for beginners or hiders and I reserve the right to decline or invite new members to join. There is a reasonably fast pace to learning and voices need to match too. However, in the same breath I think a lot of women under-estimate their ability.
All my other choirs, workshops, groups have an open door policy welcoming singers of absolutely any ability.

just had to tell you how much I enjoyed the gig, it was a real wow, full of variety, grit and punch and also amazingly polished and glam. Well done...all the crew!"
