We are a friendly and slightly wild choir who sing strong harmony arrangements of music that you might call folk from diverse cultures and traditions. We sing to the seasons, the elements and with our hearts. All levels of singing ability are welcome and songs are taught by ear.
Sessions are lead by Natural Voice Choir leader Philippa Snell and run during term times. We meet in the beautiful Quaker Meeting House in central Dorking on Tuesdays at 7. In the summer term we sing outside in the woods. Philippa firmly believes that everyone with a voice can sing and that making music together is connecting, uplifting and good for the soul.
Each term will have 6 weeks of 'Drop in' sessions where anyone can try the choir out, then the following block of 6/7 weeks will be booking only and we will work towards a performance (discount for booking the whole term in advance). Coming for the first time? Please can you park in one of the nearby car parks on South St.(the space at the venue is very limited and steep!) We really appreciate you arriving before 7pm so we can start on time :)
SUMMER term is now underway in the WOODS. Come to our Sharing on Sunday 13th July at 6pm outside on the Nower to hear gorgeous songs.
Philippa is running new one-off workshops in the woods (and beyond) over the summer before term starts on September 9th:
We've got a Singing Walk around the Nower on July 26th (7-9pm) , A John Barleycorn sing at Dropkick Brewery (pizzas and beer available afterwards)on 15th August at 4-5pm, Mindful Dance collaboration with Victoria Cruz on 30th August (5-9pm) and our last summer sing around the fire on September 2nd (7-9pm). Booking below, do contact me for any enquiries.
