The choir is much in demand for concerts around Suffolk and beyond. Some concerts are arranged by the choir itself. Some are arranged by other people who range from event organisers and other musical groups to charities. We will be happy to perform a whole concert, or share the concert with another performing group. The choir usually undertakes to perform at least once a month taking a break from concerts and rehearsals during the summer vacation. It usually also takes a month off from its performing schedule to work in the reocrding studio. The choice of venue can be varied. The choir has experience of major concert venues, small church halls to Riga Cathedral, Latvia and Grundtvigs Kirke in Copenhagan. The choir have performed in marquees, shopping centres and underneath arches and numerous breweries! Please do bear in mind stage space when booking the choir. The choir has its own staging which can be erected in different sections. Its normal configuration involves four tiers. The choir has its own keyboard, but very much prefers using either a piano or organ rather than electronic instruments. It is usual for the choir to ask for a fee, but that is a small expense compared to the possible amount that can be raised from the concert itself. The choir is usually generous if the concert is for charity. To keep costs down, for charity concerts we invite the charity to undertake the venue booking and management, the publicity and ticketing. However, we are happy to take an allocation of tickets and sell them on the organiser's behalf. The choir are available for weddings and other more private events. Please do contact us with your requirements we will always try to help if possible.
