JOIN THIS TERM
Our Summer Term 2024 starts on 29th April for 10 weeks, with a half term break in w/c 27th May. Our summer term theme is…
THE LISTENING LOUNGE
Soundwaves smash into each other. Heartbeats synch. Senses soar.
A whisper becomes a hum, from unison to harmony, to a rising ROAR! as your voices join together to (literally) breathe a different kind of air into super-star songs.
Welcome to the Listening Lounge.
This summer, we are shifting gears from disco-tastic, popilicious production and taking things back to their roots.
Catchy pop melodies are accompanied by stripped back beats and big-name bangers are reinvented as intimate ballads.
The Listening Lounge is all about being immersed, together with your audience, in the energising and healing effects of song. Like Billie Eilish just dropped by to serenade your supper. Or Taylor Swift flew in to hum you a tea-time tune.
This term promises to get you bopping around the room one minute, singing your heart out the next, or simply just closing your eyes to be in the moment.
The Listening Lounge set list includes brand new arrangements and reinventions of some old favourites, including:
CRUEL SUMMER - TAYLOR SWIFT
WHAT WAS I MADE FOR - BILLIE EILISH
BORN SLIPPY - UNDERWORLD
SWEET DISPOSITION - TEMPER TRAP

BOOKING INFO
The term costs £110 (€130) for 10 rehearsals. Plus you get an intensive rehearsal and a performance opportunity at the end of term. Intensive rehearsals may be an extended Week 10 rehearsal or a separate session, depending on the choir.
All bookings are taken online. Bookings are for the entire term at one chosen venue, no exchanges between sessions or refunds will be possible. However, many of our choirs can be booked for an ‘Extra Sing’ so you can catch up if you miss a rehearsal or attend an extra session.
We also offer an Annual Membership with £30 discount when you buy the next three terms. Payable upfront, no cancellations, cannot be used in conjunction with any other discount.
