Rehearsals led by our wonderful teachers Jess Demare and Emma West seek to give children guidance in vocal technique, part singing and general musicianship, along with involvement in a wide range of repertoire. We also help children to enjoy the experience of choral singing within a culture of inclusion and socialisation.
