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

MOSS was originally a group of men who sang with the Ben Rhydding Community Choir, but who also wanted to sing repertoire for lower voices. At present there are 10 members. Our repertoire includes jazz, blues, folk and pop arrangements, and original songs and arrangements by Keely Hodgson.

MOSS have performed at hotel functions, local community events and concerts, including performing alongside Dominic Stitchbury and his Chaps Choir at St. John’s Church, Ben Rhydding in 2019.
We welcome new members who love to sing and are happy to perform. Prospective members are invited to visit for a few sessions to “try us out”!

Wednesdays 7.30pm - 9pm NB: from Sept. 2025 - July 2026 Keely will "workshop" this group once a month. The singers will meet once in between these workshops. Contact Keely for more details & dates.

Halifax Minster, Church Street, HALIFAX, West Yorkshire HX1 1QS

Do you live or work in Halifax? Do you enjoy singing in harmony with others? Do you fancy singing in a GLORIOUS venue during your lunch hour?

The Calderdale Council Choir has opened its doors to the community and is no longer just for Council employees. We’re a small, women’s choir, singing a cappella arrangements of folk songs, pop songs, and carols.

We rehearse inside the beautiful Minster and thank them each year by performing at events such as the Minster Christmas Tree Festival, the Community Carol Service and the Festival of Women.

All our learning is done by ear, there are no auditions and you don’t need to read music. Singers pay £45 for a 10 week block.

Please do drop in and meet us on any Wednesday. We rarely have a week off but it’s a good idea to email me beforehand just to check there’s not been a cancellation for any reason.

Looking forward to singing with you.

Liz

Wednesdays 1pm - 2pm
