Welcome to the Riviera Singers

We are a traditional ladies choir that sings in parts. We currently have a membership of around 30 ladies of all ages and welcome new members who may be interested in joining us.

Under the direction of our Musical Director, Jean Giles, and accompanied by Audrey Taylor, we perform concerts for local organisations or Churches, or to help raise funds for charities. Our repertoire consists of a selection of popular songs, songs from the shows, traditional and sacred pieces.

Our choir has its roots in Brixham and has been in existence for over 30 years. Originally known as the Brixham Ladies Choir, we adopted the more modern title of The Riviera Singers in the early 1990s in recognition of the fact that our membership extends around Torbay and beyond.

Joining the Choir

Can you sing? The Riviera Singers will always welcome new members. If you are interested, we rehearse every Wednesday evening 7.30 to 9.30pm at the Fore Street Methodist Church, Brixham. Come along and listen to us and enjoy the fellowship or contact the Choir Secretary, Lynn, on 01803 857331 for further information.

Booking the Choir

The Riviera Singers are always interested in supporting any worthy cause or charity and are happy to sing in venues large and small throughout Torbay and the surrounding area. We are also willing to support other choirs with their charity endeavours, on a reciprocal basis.

If you would like us to perform a concert for your local organisation or Church, or to help raise funds for a charity, please contact our Concert Secretary, Chris, on 01803 883886.
