• Who can join our choir?
  Anyone can join us over the age of 18.  All you need is a love of singing.
  
  
• Can both men and women join?
  Yes, we are a mixed choir and sing in 4 parts - bass, tenor, alto and soprano.
  
  
• Can I try out the choir before I decide to join?
  Yes, in fact your first night at the choir is exactly that. It lets you get a feel for the music, enjoy the atmosphere and get to know some of the other Elation Community Voice family before you decide if you want to join permanently.
  
  
• Do I have to audition?
  No, all you need to do is come along and find out if it's your thing. You have no obligation to come back again and become a member but we find that most people enjoy themselves and choose to keep returning.
  
  
• Do I need any experience?
  No, none at all.  Not even if you haven’t sung since childhood.
  
  
• Do I have to be able to read music?
  No, our songs are taught by ear.
  
  
• What kind of music do you sing?
  We sing a wide range of songs by artists including Adele, Elton John, Sam Smith, Sting, Motown and Beatle Medleys, Gospel and Show Stoppers.
  
  
• Do I need to know what kind of voice I have?
  No, we sing in 4-part harmony and you can try different parts until you find a pitch that suits your voice best.
  
  
• Does the choir perform to the public?
  Yes, we normally perform around 3 times as year- Spring, Summer and Christmas and local events such as Buckby feast.  In 2015 we performed at a wedding.
  
  
• How many are there in the choir?
  We have around 50 regular members with many more dropping in now and again.
