St Mary-le-Tower Civic Church Choir - Tower Singers and Chamber Choir


	THE TOWER SINGERS The Tower Singers is a choir of women, but girls are also welcome to join the group from the age of about 13. This choir usually sings two or three services a month, most of them jointly with the gentlemen of the Church Choir. There is no regular rehearsal time but a schedule of commitments is announced well in advance of any given period. THE TOWER CHAMBER CHOIR This choir was founded in 2001 to give a performance of Bach’s St John Passion. It has since performed great choral works by Arvo Part, Henryk Gorecki, Allegri, Mendelssohn, Jonathan Harvey and many other composers. Its most recent programmes have included a further performance of the St John Passion and Elgar’s From the Bavarion Highlands. The choir consists of approximately 36 highly experienced choral singers. Its members include some from the St Mary-Le-Tower Church Choirs and others from across the whole county of Suffolk. It performs with professional orchestra and soloists as appropriate to the repertoire. The Choir does not have a regular rehearsal time, but rehearses intensively for a short period before each concert. Enquiries concerning membership should be addressed to Michael Nicholas (see contact info).
