The Churchdown (N.Glos) Good Afternoon Choir rehearse every Tuesday afternoon at Churchdown Community Centre from 12.30-2.30pm.
Grenville Jones, the founder of the Good Afternoon Choirs is delighted that his son Laurie Jones is the leader of the Churchdown (N.Glos) Good Afternoon Choir.
Laurie is the youngest son of Founder and conductor Grenville Jones. He has 20 years experience working as a professional musician and has gained degrees in both percussion and classical singing studies. He started his musical career as a freelance performer and teacher establishing himself in the South West. He has performed in some of the UK’s most prestigious venues and London’s West End. In 2008 Laurie decided to change his career and go into secondary education as a Music teacher. He was Head of Music at Abbeywood Community school for 6 years and is now Director of Music at Westonbirt Senior School. He has always had a passion for singing and he started to conduct choirs ten years ago working with Youth Choirs in schools and colleges and is the founder of award winning Malmesbury Choir and is Assistant Director for the City of Bath Male Choir.
A warm welcome awaits any new members, there are NO auditions and everyone is welcome! There is no charge for attending your first rehearsal. Come alone or with a friend – either way Laurie and the Choir will be pleased to meet you. You will be joining over 1,000 people singing at Good Afternoon Choirs around the South West!
Membership forms are available to collect at every rehearsal. The choir rehearsals are in 4 terms of 10 weeks and members pay £54 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 membership form should you wish to join the choir – your fee will then be worked out for the remainder of that term.
If you have any questions about the Choir please contact Tracey or Jody at Grenville's office in Westfield/Midsomer Norton via e-mail gac@grenvillemusic.co.uk or tel 01761 472468.
