For everyone who loves to sing.
Leytonstone voices is an adult choir who rehearse weekly during term time at The Leytonstone Social (The Ex-servicemen’s club).
Singing unites people, improves wellbeing and makes your happier. You don’t have to be a good singer, every voice counts. Our aim is to bring together our community, sing some great songs with simple refreshing harmonies and have some fun.
Rehearsal details:
Thursdays (Please see booking page for exact dates)
19:50 for an 20:00 start – finishing at 21:15 (followed by a social drink if you’ve time).
@The Social, Leytonstone Ex-servicemen’s club, 2 Harvey Road, London, E11 3DB
What should I expect?
We will cover a wide variety of genres and styles some of which we will learn by ear, others using sheet music (please note, the ability to read music is not a requirement for the choir)
Sometimes we will sing a capella (just voices), sometimes we may use backing tracks and sometimes the choir will have an accompanist/band.
I hope to put on an informal concert at the end of each term, to spread the joy of singing to our friends and families, and showcase what we’ve been working on.
Have a babe in arms but keen to join us? Bring them along and feel free to feed/sing/dance around the room if needs be!
What if I can’t make every week?
Ideally people will attend weekly choir rehearsals in order for us to progress as an ensemble, and to ensure you know the material that we are singing. I do however know that ‘life’ can make such commitments challenging, so there is a drop in ticket available and there is a lot of supporting material available to sing along to at home.
Here is a wee promo video made with clips from one of our more recent performances on 8th July 2023. It gives you a taste of the choir – we had a huge amount of fun performing, and the atmosphere (even with the rain) was fantastic.
