Membership

As a chamber choir, our membership is limited in order to achieve the small choir sound, and so normally we only recruit new members when someone leaves, which does not happen that often.   When vacancies do occur, we recruit by audition and we will advertise vacancies locally.

Congratulations to Ruth Brown and Gaudeamus on a superb concert. The orchestra really were the icing on the top of a rather rich and splendid cake. Nice to hear a new carol and the musicological 12 days of Christmas was excellent.
