THE chorus led by Musical Director Aneesa Chaudhry and supported by accompanist Mojca Monte will be performing an eclectic selection of music from their repertoire developed over the years.

The Rainbow Chorus is the longest running LGBT choir in Brighton and Hove and has built a reputation as a non-audition community choir striving for choral excellence with an active commitment to inclusion and diversity.

As a registered charity they raise awareness and promote cooperation in the LGBT choral movement and support local LGBT/HIV organisations, including Lunch Positive, Switchboard’s Older LGBT project and Mind Out.

Their recent performances at IDAHOBIT, Stand By Your Trans and their own Sing Out were well received and they’ll be headlining Trans Pride on July 25 as well as being very visible on the Brighton Pride Parade.

Tickets are still available for their next big venture, the Hand in Hand concert at the Brighton Dome on Saturday, June 13 at 7.30pm

The concert will be the centre piece and highlight of the biggest ever LGBT choral festival for choirs in the UK and Ireland and is being co-organised by the Rainbow Chorus and Brighton Gay Men’s Chorus.

The Rainbow Chorus has grown in confidence and numbers from their early days in 1997 and now has a membership of 80. Their motto is Strength in Harmony and their ever improving performances over the year is testament to that!
