Whilst it has not been possible to sing face to face due to the Covid19 pandemic, we hope to be able to return to our weekly rehearsals from Monday September 6th at our new venue, St Monica Trust Oatley House Hall (Cote Lane, Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol BS9 3UN) from 1-3pm.
The Bristol Good Afternoon Choir meets every Monday afternoon from 1pm-3pm. There is NO charge for attending your first rehearsal and membership forms are available to collect at every rehearsal. The choir rehearsals are in 4 terms of 10 weeks and members pay £50 per term - this covers room and piano hire, music, admin and musician fees. You do not need to join at the start of a term, you can simply come along to any rehearsal and pick up a members form should you wish to join the choir - your fee will then be worked out for the remainder of that term.
