Can you help us?

If you walk past the Christian Community Centre in Fore Street on a Tuesday evening, as well as the sound of singing, listen closely and you will also hear a lot of laughter. What’s taking place is a rehearsal for the Riviera Singers, a three-part ladies’ choir who have been singing in the area for many years. There is a sense of harmony in more ways than one as we rehearse a wide range of music from show tunes to ABBA and prepare for our next concert.

That next concert could be in a variety of settings from churches and community halls to memory cafes and care homes. We will be singing to bring joy to others and to raise funds for a number of both local and national charities such as Southwest Children’s Hospice, Shoalstone pool and the RNLI. We may also be arranging our next social event be it a coffee morning or a meal together; our choir is a community as well as a hobby for many of us.

Currently we are rehearsing with an acting musical director but, thinking of our future as a choir, we would love to have a permanent musical director join us. We are a small choir who want to ensure that members are not priced out of attending, to do that we offer an honorarium for the position of musical director and are looking for someone with a love and knowledge of music who would like an outlet for their skill and may have the available time.

If that could be you and you are interested in joining our happy choir, please contact: Chairperson, Anne Adams on: 07864 045196.

The Riviera Singers continue to add to their future programmes, if any organisation in the area is looking for a fund raising event with a choir, please contact Trish our concert secretary 01803 405416 or email therivierasingers@outlook.co.uk , we might be able to help.
