Songtribe Choir, Edinburgh

SongTribe opens the doors to anyone to come along and try out the choir for the second of our ‘taster’ evenings. Nothing to pay unless you decide to join. This term we’ll be singing some gorgeous new arrangements and songs and rehearsing towards a 12th Night Concert on 6th January. And for the first 2 nights of term I’ll be demonstrating how we work so you can get a flavour of the group and see if you think it’s right for you.

We’re particularly looking for Sopranos this term. And when I use the term Soprano, it’s not in the classical music sense. In a community choir we don’t sing very high or low – all the arrangements are crafted to sit within a certain ‘comfort zone’ for your voice. And if you don’t know what you sing just come along and try it out – you’ll be most welcome. The doors open at 6.30pm for tea biscuits and a bit of chat, then we begin singing at 7pm with a warm up.

“All my life I’ve loved the way that singing and songs can raise you up and make you feel better about being alive; the way that the right song at the right time can make you feel human and connected to the world. SongTribe is special. You don’t have to be a great singer to join but I am looking for people who are committed and keen to perform as well as we possibly can – and to having a lot of fun along the way.” Ali Burns
