Choirs

What can you expect when you join Sing in the City?

We have 14 choirs rehearsing in Edinburgh, Fife and the Lothians. This includes our new Glenrothes choir and our new partnership choir with the Edinburgh Playhouse.   The colder winter months are the most popular time of year for people to join. It gets darker earlier, we wake up in the morning and it's dark and we all need that little bit of ME time more. Sing in the City provides you with that.

” We aim to provide a safe, warm, welcoming and inclusive rehearsal space  for members to sing at a level they choose”

We are providing music in our community and you have nothing to lose by taking a FREE trial. We truly aim to be much 'more than a choir'. You will make friends, your voice and confidence will improve and you will sing great songs, expertly arranged and written in some instances and will take part in amazing events.

No audition process except for our Aw Blacks (the choir that wear black). All our other choirs, turn up, sing, make friends and have a cuppa.
