Amplified is open to anyone aged 18+ with a passion for singing. If you’re a complete beginner, we recommend taking our Beginner’s Singing Course first before joining the choir.

No audition is required. You’ll simply join a taster rehearsal where the Musical Director will ensure the pace of learning feels manageable.

No – everything is taught by ear. The focus is on singing, listening, and learning together.

We understand people have busy lives. You don’t need to attend every session, but we do ask members to commit as much as possible, especially in the lead-up to performances.

Amplified Choir performs in two major concerts each year – one in summer and one in winter – giving you the opportunity to showcase your progress on stage.
