If you enjoy singing and live in or around Shrewsbury, come along and have a go.
Playjar Singers Community Choir Originally started by Lorraine Watson, owner of Playjar Music, in 2016. Playjar Singers Community Choir is an independent group attracting a large cross-section of the local community, from all age groups and backgrounds.
The choir rehearses on Wednesday evenings every week and performs at least one concert every term. Mission Statement Playjar Singers Community Choir is a group that offers everyone the opportunity to sing.
We welcome people of all ages, backgrounds and levels of musical experience, and endeavour to sing a wide range of music that both reflects the cultural makeup and diversity of the local community and offers something for everyone to enjoy.
There are no auditions and no requirements to read music: all that is required is enthusiasm and commitment.
We aim to create a relaxed, fun, creative and community-focused environment, where people can meet their neighbours and make new friends, whilst making music to a high standard. We also aim to encourage and inspire people to engage in broader musical activity, both in Shrewsbury and in the wider communities.
We offer: the opportunity to sing and create music; the opportunity to perform; the opportunity to develop new vocal, musical and language skills; and most importantly, the opportunity to enjoy singing and making music with one another.
The rehearsals are split into two groups: Playjar Family Singers, which is for ages 5 up, to enable family groups to sing together. A small crèche at the back of the hall will be available during this time for anyone too young to join yet.
Playjar Senior Singers, which is for ages 14 years up, to enable people to have a go at more challenging pieces. (However, no crèche will available.)
