Our primary mission is to promote equality and diversity through the study, practice, and performance of choral music. We are set up to: Foster a deeper public appreciation and understanding of the LGBTQ+ community. Provide a safe and positive social space where community members feel supported and included. Maintain a group of confident, professionally supported singers who strive for musical excellence. How we accomplish this: We use our concerts and outreach programs to attract respect and tolerance for the LGBT+ community. We hire professional contractors, specifically a Musical Director, to ensure our members receive high-quality musical training. We foster a flexible and open environment where members are encouraged to have fun, connect, and respect one another’s diverse experiences. Our members demonstrate their dedication by committing to at least 70% of rehearsals, ensuring the choir remains a well-organised and cohesive musical group.
