WHO ARE ITS MEMBERS?
The choir consists of a pool of around 30 of the most experienced adult singers in the Medway/ Maidstone area and from further afield - not only from places like London and the Kent coast, but some members travel regularly from Aachen (Germany) and Vienna (Austria) to sing with us! From this pool about 20-25 are on duty for most events.
Members are selected after tough auditions; near perfect sight-reading is an essential qualification. About a quarter of them have degrees in music or diplomas from the London conservatories: several are teachers; many others are professional singers, instrumentalists or choir/orchestra directors in their own right. Other professions represented in the choir include engineers, medics, bankers, business people, social workers, civil servants, teachers, academics and students.
