Review of the financial period
Knot Another Choir is a Community Choir, based in Knaresty)rough, North Yorkshire. We
meet weekly for rehearsals in our local Church Hall, led by our Musical Direttor and
Accompanist.
We regularly tske part in concerts and festivals in the local area, and sometimes
elsewhere in the UK. We also hold singing workshops primarily for members, sometimes
with guest visitors invited to join us. The major event this year was to take the choir to
Ireland to enter the Limerick Intemational Choir Festival held at Limerick University. this
was a wonderful 3-day event which everyone enjoyed.
We do not hold auditions, and anyone within the community is welcome to join, subject
only to a waiting list for places if applicable at the time. In September and Januaryi we
