WELCOME

We aim to provide an enjoyable opportunity for people to sing a wide repertoire of music, both secular and non-secular.

We are a very friendly group and now meet at 7.30pm on Monday evenings in Barrington Village Hall where we have more space for our growing numbers.

Our members come not only from Orwell and other surrounding villages but also from Cambridge and Royston. At the moment the choir consists of 15 sopranos, 15 altos, 6 basses and 6 tenors. You do not need to be able to read music, just to enjoy singing. New members are most welcome, with no audition.

Our Christmas Concert will be on Saturday 12 December at Orwell Village Hall, and we also have Spring and Summer 2027 Concerts, dates to be decided. Our programmes include a wide range of music of various styles with a bit of audience participation, some fun items and songs from the shows.

In July we waved goodbye to Musical Director Jonathan whose student visa had expired and suitable jobs were not forthcoming. So with regrets he had to return the USA but his family was delighted to welcome back him, Ellie and newly born daughter Margo.

In September 2024 we were delighted to welcome Geoff Page as our new Musical Director, bringing wide experience of directing choirs as well as being an accomplished musician and lyricist.
