About Us

Welcome to Sing17 Choir, a welcoming, inclusive, and fun community choir based in Walthamstow, United Kingdom. With a 10-year history of bringing people together through the joy of singing, we are proud to offer an informal yet high-standard approach to choir singing.

 

Our Journey

Sing17 Choir was founded a decade ago with the mission to create a welcoming space where people of all ages and abilities can come together to sing. Under the expert guidance of our experienced choir leader, Laura Forbes, we have grown into a vibrant community that celebrates music and friendship.

What We Offer

At Sing17 Choir, we provide weekly rehearsals every Wednesday evening where no singing experience is required. We believe that everyone has a voice worth hearing, and our rehearsals are designed to be relaxed and fun. You don't even have to come every week – we offer a drop-in system to suit your schedule.

Our Repertoire

Our choir sings a diverse repertoire that includes folk, sea shanties, pop and seasonal songs. Whether it's a festive carol or a pop banger, our aim is to keep our sessions engaging and enjoyable for all. We also perform at local venues, bringing joy to the community through music. Songs include: A Little Respect, Girl on Fire, All those things that I've done, Vienna, Pompeii and many more!https://youtu.be/DD5y4vLkZ30

No, everyone is welcome at Sing17 Choir, regardless of experience. We believe that everyone can sing and enjoy the benefits of being part of a choir.
