The Mill Lane Gospel Choir

 

Background

Emma Pears began the choir in October 2002 and has seen it grow from a group of 20 to the lively 130 on the current list! The choir consists of members of the Town Church, those who go to other churches and many who do not go to church at all.  Regardless of people's faith or beliefs, all are welcome.

 

Rehearsals

Monday evenings 8-10pm at The Mill Lane Centre, Sevenoaks.

Rehearsals usually take place during school term times.

 

Ability/ Auditions

We sing without music and are a mixed ability choir, with no control on the input but plenty of control on the output! Our aim is to be inclusive, so we do not hold auditions for being members of the choir.

 

Music and Lyrics

We learn the songs by rote (without music and lyrics written down) in order not to be exclusive to those who can read music and so that we learn and memorise songs effectively.

 

If you find yourself in a rehearsal and we are singing a song you didn’t learn with the choir, you may borrow some lyrics for that song. You may also use the lyrics to learn the songs between rehearsals.
