If you enjoy singing, would like to try a new and sociable hobby which includes the thrill of performance, and are prepared to commit some time and effort to it, we would like to hear from you. You don't need any musical training and you don't need to be able to read music. What we do ask of you is dedication and commitment - we meet each week on a Thursday evening with occasional weekend rehearsals.
If you are considering applying to join GEM, we ask you to come to a few rehearsals before you decide so you can see what we do. (More details on how we audition people are provided when you visit us). You will be supported, work at your own pace, and be provided with small, achievable goals which build gradually as you're developing confidence and demonstrating commitment. All steps are taken at your own pace. We're a very friendly, fun-loving group of ladies who love to meet new people and are always open to new members - so do come and visit us.Joining a barbershop chorus is an excellent way to improve your voice, your confidence, your breathing and your social life! As members of GEM Connection we believe that improving our ability as singers is really important. We work on developing our craft at our weekly rehearsals, at special chorus education days and weekends, and at educational events organised by LABBS, the organisation to which we belong.
For more information about joining, or to let us know that you are planning to visit us, contact Catharine Warner: 07754771691,
