Who is Hatfield Welwyn Community Choir?

 

As a community choir, we are open to all age groups. (Please note all under 16s must be accompanied by an adult for the whole session). There is no audition and you don't need to be able to read music, just have a desire to sing with other people. No-one is ever asked to sing alone unless they choose to do so. We welcome people of all levels of ability from those who think they are "tone deaf" to those who are confident singers.

We sing pieces from simple rounds to four part harmony, traditional and modern pieces from all over the world. Our repertoire extends from Bernstein’s ‘America!’ and G F Handel’s ‘Zadock the Priest’ to Hungarian Folk songs and South African hymns. Most terms we have a show tune to learn and have enjoyed singing medleys from ’Beauty and the Beast’, ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ and ‘South Pacific’.


Whatever we do, we try to make it fun!

It is not compulsory to attend, but we get a real buzz showing off what we learn at live events. Once a year we present a Gala concert as a celebration of our musical achievements.  Our voices have been heard in intimate venues like The Barn Theatre, Welwyn Garden City as well as the mighty Royal Albert Hall. With the spirit of community at our core, some of our most rewarding appearances have been at community events like the Isobel Hospice ‘Lights of Love’ service and entertaining local care home residents.
