Chorus Of Dissent YouTube
Good evening, and here is the news …. Chorus of Dissent now have a YouTube channel! As we have a fantastic video archive from our recent, and not so recent concerts,…
We are a friendly, sociable, non-audition, project-based choir that began in 2012, and continues to welcome singers from the local area and beyond.
Our sellout concerts feature innovative and eclectic programming. We think we are probably the only choir ever to perform Fauré and Freddie Mercury, and Bach and Elbow in the same concert. We aim to present the best music in our own inimitable and inclusive Dissenting style.
You will need to be an experienced singer, able to read music and sing in tune in order to manage the delightfully short rehearsal schedule that precedes our delightfully short concerts. Our singers also work hard in between rehearsals to learn their parts at home.
One of the cornerstones of our success is our collaboration with our very own orchestra of local professional musicians, The Elastic Band, which expands and contracts as the music dictates.
If you’d like to rise to the challenge of joining our exciting choir, email Ruth on dissentersn16@gmail.com.

“Chorus of Dissent is exciting, edgy, ambitious, and whatever the opposite of treading water is (a turbo-charged speedboat).”
John Sloboda, musician and activist
