Popular UK choir comes to Bristol this September
Some Voices will be bringing its blend of feel-good music and uplifting party vibes to Bristol this September.
Some Voices is a non-traditional choir with a mission to be inclusive to all.
Beginning as a small group of friends meeting to sing in London in 2010, the choir quickly grew after people fell in love with their incredible vocal arrangements, clubbing-like gigs and an eclectic repertoire that spans disco, pop, folk, hip hop, rap, indie and more.
is needed now More than ever
As well as weekly rehearsals and gigs, Some Voices is also in high demand as a performance choir, and has recently sung with the likes of Sam Ryder at this year’s Prince’s Trust Awards, Mika in Channel 4’s The Piano and Keala Settle in the 2021 Royal Variety Performance at the Royal Albert Hall.
Now rehearsing in 24 different locations across the UK, Some Voices will be opening a new choir every Monday at Alma Church in Clifton from September 11.
Each term is themed and will culminate in a high-energy performance at a local venue.
The Bristol choir will be led by Jonathan Grosberg, who is Head of Music and Singing at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and has immense experience as a performer, composer, musical director, vocal coach and choir leader.
Grosberg said: “I’m a firm believer that singing is a joy that should be open to everyone. I can’t wait to start a Some Voices choir in Bristol that celebrates the community spirit that Bristolians are known for.”
There are no auditions, no need to read music, no experience required – every voice is welcome.
Rehearsals begin on Monday evenings on September 11 at Alma Church with new members getting the option to try out the choir for free in a taster session.
