How good a singer do I have to be?
Our choir is all about the fun that we can have together! We don't require everyone to be able to sing really well but it would be awesome if you are able to carry a tune. We will all be in it together and will have a lot of fun no matter what.
If you are able to sing a particular part of the harmony just let Revd Tom know when you start with the choir.
