Bracknell

Talented young Bracknell singers will entertain shoppers in Princess Square in Bracknell town centre from 4.30pm today (June 28).

Bracknell Voice, the choir for seven to eleven year olds, will perform their wide repertoire that is set to delight all who hear them.

And now they're on the look out for new members.

The choir is free to join and meets every Wednesday at St Joseph's Church Hall in Bracknell town centre from 4.30 to 5.30pm during term times.

As well as performing at a number of venues including Bracknell town centre the choir also takes part in schools-based concerts and performances such as the recent widening opportunities concert at St Joseph's Church on May 24.

Mary Sefton, Music Advisory Teacher for Bracknell Forest, runs Bracknell Voice and is keen to hear from children who enjoy singing and may be interested in joining.

She said: "All the children are of varying ability so enthusiasm is as important as natural flair.

"As well as being great fun in itself we we have found children rapidly grow in confidence and self-esteem so there's even more than musical talent that can be developed.

"As our rehearsals are just an hour long, parent and carers have the chance to pop into town while their child is singing with us."

There is free car parking at St Joseph's Church for parents and carers whose children are members of Bracknell Voice.

For more information on joining contact Mary Sefton on tel: 01189 936 6424.

The choir was set up in September 2004 thanks to a grant from Youth Music and since then has received support from Bracknell based companies Boehringer Ingelheim, Panasonic, the Rotary Club of Bracknell and the Rotary Club of Easthampstead.
