Shannon Express Chorus
Description
This site will look much better in a browser that supports web standards, but it is accessible to any browser or Internet device.
From its beginnings in 1978 - when nine or ten men gathered together to share their love of singing - to its present status as one of the UK's leading amateur choirs, never has that initial feeling of fun and friendship left the chorus. Amateur maybe but definitely not 'amateurish'. Singing is our hobby and the enjoyment that this brings is manifest in all our performances be they in small churches in the wilds of Essex, the Royal Albert Hall or venues in Europe and the USA.
Weekly rehearsals require dedication and commitment especially from those members who travel long distances. Ages ranging from teenagers to more senior citizens, a mix of backgrounds and musical ability all add to the hubbub before the pitch pipe blows and the chorus comes to order under the direction of Roger Chantrelle. Then the chords ring and the emotions take over.
