It's proven that singing in a choir is good for mind and body, as well as being great fun and a fantastic way to meet new people. If you enjoy singing but would like to join a choir which rehearses in the daytime, then why not try InSpire Daytime Voices! We run on a Tuesday morning 10:15am-12pm at The Spire, High Street, Poole.
Membership is open to all – no auditions! We sing a wide variety of music; from jazz and pop to folk and classical pieces. All you need is a love of singing and a sense of fun! The ability to read music is helpful but not at all essential and you'll be surprised at how much you pick up each week.
Performance opportunities include an informal concert for family and friends at the end of the term, and Spring and Christmas concerts alongside the other sections of P&P. There are also opportunities to perform at events or community settings around Poole. Participation in all events is optional, but they are a lot of fun and a great way to build your confidence as a performer amongst friends.
Recently, Daytime Voices have performed to students at both Montacute and Victoria Schools, at a launch event for the Poverty Truth Commission and to sell-out audiences at The Spire for our Spring & Christmas concerts. You can find our concerts online at www.youtube.com/@pandp1919
So whether you've been in a choir before or if you've no experience, come along and give us a try. There are no auditions, all you need is a love of music and a sense of fun.
