Spring Term

We've started 2021 off via Zoom. Zoom rehearsals may be shorter sessions than usual, but they start at our usual time of 7.45pm.

• Our rehearsals are held over Zoom while we are not able to meet in person. When conditions allow us to do so safely, and in accordance with government guidance, we intend to move to in-person rehearsals in small groups again (with a Zoom option for those who need it), and eventually to full in-person reheasals.

  During Zoom rehearsals you can see other choir members and feel part of our community.

  We take a short social break during each Zoom rehearsal to chat online in small, random groups.

  During the Spring term we're singing a variety of short pieces. We aim to keep the sessions fun and provide something for all levels of singers to enjoy.

  Email hillingdonchoralsociety@gmail.com to get further information and join in the fun.
