Don’t forget, tonight is Red Leicester Choir’s evening designed to give potential new members a taste of what being in the choir is like. We’ll be performing some songs and teaching a few too. If you think you’d enjoy singing with us, please come along; it will run from 7.30 to 9.30pm, and takes place at our usual rehearsal venue, the Secular Hall, Humberstone Gate (opposite Sainsbury’s).
This afternoon, choir members Glenys and Colleen appeared on Jim Davis’ show on BBC Radio Leicester, talking about Red Leicester (and a great job they did too). Frank has kindly converted their interview into an MP3, which is available here (the link will lead you to WikiUploads; click on the green ‘Download This File’ button).

Term has started, which means choir rehearsals have started again too – every Wednesday at 7.30pm in the Secular Hall, as usual! It was great to get singing again yesterday, and to meet some new members. If you’re thinking about giving Red Leicester a go, we’re having a New Members’ Evening on Wednesday the 22nd of September. This is something we do every year, and although we welcome new members all year round, we like to have a special rehearsal in the autumn term that acts as a taster for anyone who fancies singing with us. There will be a chance to hear songs from across our repertoire, and of course to join in and learn one or two of them!
Everyone is welcome; we are an open-access socialist choir with no auditions, and you don’t need to be able to read music – some of our members do, but many learn by ear.
