Some Voices, named “the UK’s most exciting non-audition pop choir” by BBC Radio, is bringing its unique blend of feel-good music and uplifting party vibes to Portsmouth this summer.
Known as a choir ‘without the boring bits’, Some Voices is a non-traditional contemporary choir with a mission to be inclusive to all. There are no auditions, no experience required, and no need to read music as everything is learned by ear. The choir is known for their incredible vocal arrangements, clubbing-like gigs and an eclectic repertoire that spans disco, pop, folk, hip hop, rap, indie and more.
Now rehearsing in 28 different locations across the UK and recently launched internationally in Paris and Amsterdam, Some Voices is opening a new choir this Spring on Thursday evenings at Kings Church in Southsea.
The choir will be led by Natasha Burns, a south-coast based musician with over 15 years of experience performing, teaching, and directing choirs all over the world from Bristol to Bangkok. Currently combining lecturing at the University of Southampton with private work, Natasha is deeply passionate about making the joy of singing accessible to all.
Fuelled by the vibrant community spirit of Portsmouth, Natasha is excited to bring the infectious enthusiasm of Some Voices to the vibrant music scene that the city is known for:
“I’m absolutely thrilled to be launching a Some Voices choir in Portsmouth! Known for its music scene, rich cultural heritage and tight-knit community, it’s the perfect backdrop for our musical journey. Together we’ll sing some fantastic songs, and celebrate the unique voices and stories that make Portsmouth really special. Get ready to sing your heart out and be part of something wonderful!” Natasha Burns, Portsmouth Choir Leader
Rehearsals begin on 2nd May and are every Thursday evening at 7pm at King’s Church. New members can try out the choir for free in a taster session.
