About Wythall Community Choir

The idea for a Community Choir came from a member of St Mary's church, back in September 2012.   A volunteer investigated and subsequently found  our first choir leader, Alex Norman, a choir master and organist, classically trained at the Conservatoire in Birmingham.

​

56 lovely people came on the first practice, and the rehearsals and concert on 22nd December 2012 was a success and also great fun!

​

10 years on we now have a new Choir Leader, Susannah Coughlin and we are enjoying a different style of singing.

​

While Suzi is on maternity leave we have found another excellent choir leader in Neavan Lobban.

​

The Choir meets at the Scout HQ in Wythall Park each Monday in the school term with rehearsals starting at 7.15pm. We have a 10 minutes break for refreshments and we close at 9.30pm. Each rehearsal costs £4 and all music is provided

​

We usually hold a Christmas concert, a summer fundraising concert and take part in Christmas Community Concerts.  We love to sing and perform.

​

We also have a 'Small Choir' which is an informal choir led by our Small-Choir Coordinator.  This smaller choir sings at carnivals, at care homes, at local events.  Please contact us via Facebook if you want to know more.
