sharing the stage ...

It's great that we are well into the start of our journey singing with other choirs!  It gives us a different learning curve and it benchmarks how far we have come since we were formed in 2010.

OK - you may say that after 9 years, it's about time...   ...but we disagree.

We were not formed with the intention to be a slick prize-winning competition choir which also gets a 'Strictly Come Dancing' 10 for its choreography...

...nor were we formed by public subscription...

...nor, contrary to what has been said recently about choirs with a community ethos, do we have an auditions policy...

...we were formed to give our founding members, and those who have joined us since and swelled our numbers and our quality, the chance to sing.   Not 'sing if you're good enough', or sing 'within a raft of defined instructions', but sing, pure and simple.  The only great aspiration is that we have in our memory the songs we deliver in a joint concert and our standard repertoire in our own concert productions - but we are, after all, a male voice choir.  For a group of unauditioned men, that is a worthy achievement to show 9 years of work.
