Rehearsals

We rehearse at the Ropetackle Centre in Shoreham-by-Sea on two Sundays every month from 10.30 to 12.30.

What do we sing?

We sing classic songs from the 1930s to the present day, including Gershwin, Abba, Sinatra, Beach Boys, Lou Reed, My Fair Lady, and many more.

What are the aims?

The primary aim is to make sure everyone has a fantastic time producing wonderful sounds with the help of great songs. On the way, you will learn something about the elements of good singing technique, in particular, breathing, posture and attitude. We arrange regular public performances, both because they help focus the mind during rehearsals and because music is essentially a shared experience between performer and audience.

Have a look at some photographs of our recent performance at the Dome in Brighton. Here is a video clip of us performing at Ropetackle Arts Centre.

Do I have to be an experienced singer to join?

Everyone is welcome. We have singers of all levels of experience, from those who claim never to have sung a note before to those who have sung in choirs all their lives. Whatever your age and ability, you will be able to learn and contribute and have enormous fun. You do not have to be able to read music, though we do work from music scores and you will find that you gradually and painlessly become familiar with the mysteries of written music. Those who read music and have experience of singing in choirs will have plenty of interesting harmonies to get their teeth into.

What does it cost?

All members pay £2.50 per rehearsal. This just covers our costs. Occasionally you will have to pay for music and CDs. The music book for this term is priced at £5, and our current rehearsal CD at £1.

Who runs the choir?

Shoreham-Singers-by-Sea is the brainchild of world-renowned bass player and music educationalist Herbie Flowers. The choir is run by the staff and volunteers of the Ropetackle Centre. Musical Director is Michael Hinton.
