The Choir are more than willing to engage in concerts for charities, charitable organisations, churches, community groups and other worthy causes throughout Cumbria. We have a vast repertoire to draw upon and concerts are always sung without musical copies. We can also engage the services of local female soloists and/or Sethera Brass if required, to complement the Choir in your concert.
The Choir even respond to special requests prior to concerts, we learned the Westlife hit ‘You Raise Me Up’ especially for a concert of the same title.
Concert bookings will of course depend on a suitable venue. However, a piano is not required as we can bring our own electric keyboard.
The services of the Choir are provided entirely FREE of charge to the charities/charitable organisations and other worthy causes we perform for, allowing all monies raised to benefit the chosen charities.
The Choir are also available to sing for corporate functions and in schools/colleges. The Choir’s policy is only to perform at wedding ceremonies for relatives or close friends of choir members.

The Choir are always on the look-out for new members no matter how old or young. You don’t have to be Pavarotti, just to have an interest in music and a willingness to learn. An ability to read music is not necessary, as training will be given. CD’s of vocal parts are also available to help with learning of songs. The Choir rehearse every Thursday from 7:30pm to 9:30pm in St Gregory’s and St Patrick’s Church, Quay Street, Whitehaven (this is the small church next to Argos near the harbour). The annual membership fee is a modest £10.
If you are interested please feel free to come to one of our rehearsals, you will be made most welcome and you never know, you might get to like us.
Visitors to Whitehaven are also very welcome to sit in on rehearsals.
