The Purbeck Arts Choir is open to anyone who wants to sing! We presently number 50+ in all voice parts (SATB) and extend a warm, friendly and supportive welcome to new singers and although previous experience is helpful, it is not essential.
We are a registered charity no. 1155013. The objects of the charity are to advance improve, develop and maintain public education in, and appreciation of, the art and science of music in all its aspects by any means the trustees see fit, including the presentation of concerts, recitals and instrument loans.
We meet for our weekly practice from 7.00 to 8.30pm every Thursday at St Mary’s School, Northbrook Road, Swanage BH19 1QE
Generally we rehearse and perform from September to May but we do occasionally extend our “season” to participate in local events or join with other choirs.
Subscriptions are paid in advance and there is a discount for paying in full at the beginning of the singing year in September – £100 for both Autumn and Spring terms. If you are only joining us for one term only or wish to pay in two separate instalments, the cost is £60 per term.
Our two main concerts are held around Christmas and Easter.
