THE New Members’ Evening will be combined with a regular rehearsal, so if you’re interested to know what it’s like being in the Chorus and meet the existing members, this is the perfect opportunity for you!

James K who joined the Chorus in January 2015 said: “As a bit of an introvert I usually shy away from joining groups but I’m glad I got over this to join the Chorus as I have found everyone involved extremely friendly and welcoming. The experience has not only opened up a hobby that I thoroughly enjoy, but is personally helping to build my self-confidence”

Charlie Bedson, Membership Coordinator for the Chorus, added: “The Chorus has grown steadily over the last ten years and is currently going from strength to strength – performing at a high standard, pushing our creative boundaries and playing an important role in the local community.  We’re really happy to welcome new members in this very special year in our history”

Brighton Gay Men’s Chorus is a space where people can celebrate music, celebrate their sexuality, enjoy the fellowship of other like-minded people and contribute to the local communities it’s a part of.

The Chorus is a registered charity with three guiding principles, their “Three S’s”:
• Singing – the celebration of life and music through male voice harmonies;
• Socialising – using this activity to develop social bonds that help people to feel connected with a sometimes lonely world; and
• Support – to be there for each other – both collectively and individually – when the chips are down, and to be there for the communities in which the chorus operates, too.

This year, the Chorus is celebrating it’s 10th Anniversary which will culminate in a special concert performance in November. Their first major performance of this 10th Anniversary year is called Back To The Bond Age and will be taking place this Friday 1 and Saturday, May 2 at 7.30pm in St Bartholomew’s Church, Brighton. Tickets for the show are £12 (£10 conc).
