A community gospel choir based in Southampton
We aim to sing at about 12 -15 events per year, such as festivals, fêtes, weddings, funerals, and of course concerts, singing with heart and voice in all manner of places within the area.
Hello!
We are a friendly bunch of people who get together to sing.
Actually there is a bit more to it than that.
Our repertoire includes a very wide range of music, not just traditional gospels and spirituals, but African songs, modern songs and standards. They are usually arranged specially for us by our director Penny Hastings in 4 part harmony.
Anyone can join.
There are no auditions!
You don't have to be a brilliant singer either.
Best of all there are no compulsory fees! (but we do accept donations to pay for the expenses such as the rehearsal hall)
...or even pretend
You don't have to be able to read music...
If you'd like to join in the fun, please drop us a message.
We formed in 1997, and practiced at the Central Hall in St. Mary St. Southampton for many years.

Moving Pictures!
In 2020 we moved our base away from Central Hall.
Our home is now St Alban's Church in Tulip Rd, Swaythling.
