Come along and meet John Sandford our conductor and ‘discover’ great music, with NO CHARGE to attend the first rehearsal on Tuesday October 5th, 2021 from 2-4pm at Cirencester Baptist Church in the Coxwell Room, Chesterton Lane, Cirencester, GL7 1YE.
John leads the choir and our founder is Grenville Jones. We meet every Tuesday afternoon from 2pm - 4pm at Cirencester Baptist Church. There is NO CHARGE for attending your first rehearsal and membership information is then available. COME ALONG WITH A FRIEND.
Choir rehearsals are in 4 terms of 10 weeks and members pay £50 per term, this covers all room and piano hire, music, admin and the 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.
John Sandford (pictured) lives in Bath and is a Choral Music Director with over 30 years experience running children's and
adult choirs. John holds a Certificate of Teaching from the Royal School of Music specialising in voice training and loves to work with individuals and groups to improve their singing technique and vocal health. He is also a member of the Association of British Choral Directors and has taken part in workshops led by leading composers such as John Rutter, Eric Whitacre and Bob Chilcott.
There are NO AUDITIONS and everyone is welcome at our afternoon Choirs...whilst some members have sung before, many are new to choir singing - it’s a great way to make new friends. You will be joining over 1000 people Singing in the Afternoons!
The Cirencester & Stroud Good Afternoon Choir will be enjoying all sorts of music – from folk songs to choral favourites. If you have any questions about the Choir please contact Jody at Grenville's office by calling 01761 472468 or emailing
gac@grenvillemusic.co.uk - or just come along to your first free session, with a friend!
All of our choirs support local charities, chosen by the choir members. Some of you may recognise Grenville who founded the Good Afternoon Choirs 11 years ago. He’s been seen on TV and Radio many times for his choir leaderships AND as founder of the
Golden-Oldies Charity.
