We love making a mighty and harmonious sound! There are no auditions, and you don’t need a fabulous voice to join us (although you will probably develop one after singing with us for a while!)
Our leader is Gabryl Oleshko. We meet every Thursday for a fast paced and exhilarating evening of song. We sing a wide range of songs: traditional and modern, from Britain and around the World, in three or four part harmony (and occasionally in unison). We usually sing a cappella (unaccompanied). Sometimes we use a score (written music) to help learn the songs, but you don’t need to be able to read music as all parts are also taught by ear.
The Autumn Term 2024 is from 12th September to 19th December
We meet on Thursday evenings from 7:45 – 9.30pm at the Multi-Faith Centre, University of Derby, Kedleston Road, Derby, DE22 1GB. There is ample parking at the University; it is also served by the Trent Barton Allestree bus which stops outside, and by the Unibus, which comes direct to the door.
Sessions cost : £7.00 and, if you can, please pay up front for four sessions by cheque made payable to Kaleidoscope Community Music Ltd. Cash and Bank transfer also available.
We do not have refreshment facilities, so we ask all singers to bring their own drinks with them.
The Choir on June 9th 2022
We always start with an enjoyable variety of warm-ups and vocal techniques to strengthen, protect and enhance our voices. Our weekly attendance is between 20 and 30, with a good mixture of voices in all parts, and we sing because we enjoy it.
Listen to samples of the choir’s repertoire on the choir’s Recordings page.
