St Peters Church, Moorhead Lane, Saltaire, BD18 4JH

We are a very friendly mixed choir of all ages who come together to sing for pleasure. We were formed in 1996 with an aim of providing people the opportunity to sing and make new friends.
We sing unaccompanied and in harmony and we are particularly keen to recruit men and younger singers who are under-represented in the choir at the moment.
It is our belief that everyone has a voice and can sing, so there are no auditions; people just come along (first night is free) and sing the part where their voice feels most comfortable.
Our repertoire includes songs of peace, celebration, the environment and world music. Most of our songs are taught in either 3 or 4 part harmony, using the aural tradition of call and response, so you don’t have to be able to read music.
We do perform a few times a year and everyone is welcome and encouraged to take part but there is no pressure. We try our best for it to be an enjoyable and exciting part of choir.
Each year we try to get away on a choir residential which we use as an opportunity for choir to experience a guest leader. It’s always lots of fun and one of the highlights of our year!

Church House, Main Street, Bingley, BD16 2RH

HeartSong Companion Voices of West Yorkshire are one of many Companion Voices groups around the UK. Companion Voices was founded by Judith Silver in 2014, inspired by Threshold Choirs in the States.
We are a Companion Voices group of singers based around Bingley, West Yorkshire who gather to learn songs and prepare to sing for people who are unwell or at the end of life. We share our voices, compassion and loving presence when called to sing.
Our repertoire reflects songs for people who hold religious & spiritual beliefs & people who do not & our aim is to create a soundscape that will be comforting, relaxing & undemanding, so we use simple & repetitive songs drawn from a wide range of traditions.
Our singing is not to entertain but to accompany & honour the person receiving them. We aim to give them a sense that their experience is held & acknowledged by the singers.

3rd Wednesday of the month

St. John's Church, Bolling Road, Ben Rhydding, Ilkley

Ben Rhydding Community Choir was set up by Keely Hodgson in 2011. The choir welcomes all voices. We meet to sing together one Saturday morning each month (except August) to learn songs, socialise and raise awareness for the UK Charity “Give A Child A Hope” which supports a small community, The Revival Centre, Matugga, Uganda, comprising an orphanage, schools, clinic, and farm.
The choir sings in a large concert setting once every two years to raise funds for The Revival Centre and has also performed at local events, community fetes, bandstands and train stations.
We sing a varied repertoire of acapella songs from around the world as well as from different eras, including original songs and arrangements by Natural Voice Leaders.

Once a month, Saturday, 10am - 12.30pm
