Heart & Soul Choir
The Heart & Soul Choirs are about singing and music being accessible to all in their community, and are designed to be wholly inclusive so that Members can make friends with local people, learn to sing some uplifting and positive repertoire, come out of their comfort zones and impress themselves every week with their vocal skills!
The original Heart & Soul Choir began in 2008 when our founder, Vocal Coach Roz McLeod CT ABRSM (Voice), pulled together a group of people to sing for a one-off fundraising event she was organising. The singers enjoyed it so much, they didn’t want to stop – the rest is history.
