The Morning Choir and North Nibley Community Choir
Love to sing?
The North Nibley Community Choir and The Morning Choir in Wotton are thriving community choirs which started in 2014.
​
The focus of both choirs is to sing for fun but there are opportunities to perform in public at Christmas and other concerts as arranged during the year.
​
In a friendly and relaxed atmosphere we sing a wide variety of uplifting and fun music - pop, soul, folk, jazz, blues, world, classical and more. As well as singing in 2, 3 and 4 part harmonies, we enjoy singing simple rounds and warm-up exercises.
A variety of teaching methods is used, both learning parts by ear and also using sheet music for longer, more complex pieces. There is no need to be able to read music for this.
We learn new songs each term to add to our repertoire which is ever-growing!
New members are always welcome, whether beginners or experienced singers. You don't need to have an amazing voice to be in a choir, it's
all about the love of singing and the communities built in the process.
