Who we are
We are a Community Choir made up of people who love to sing! Some of our members are seasoned singers and others begin as complete novices with no musical or singing experience at all.

What we do
Singing in a choir not only benefits mental and physical health but is enormous fun.
Our repertoire is varied so there is something for everyone. As well as songs we learn exercises and techniques to help with breathing and vocal range.
We usually sing from sheet music and learn songs in two, three or four part harmony but it's not necessary to be able to read music. We sing a lot of songs arranged or written specially for community choirs, folk and traditional songs, musical theatre numbers, sacred songs and well-known popular songs.
Concerts are held at Christmas and throughout the Summer term when the choirs entertain audiences in Leicestershire and beyond, raising thousands of pounds for local charities.
Caroline
Caroline is a choir leader who has a gift for encouraging those who lack confidence in their singing to find their voice. She currently leads the Caroline Sharpe Singers - a mixed voice choir based in Loughborough, the Belvoir Wassailers - male voice choir, and the Shuttlewood Singers, as well as Singing for Fun East Midlands choirs. Caroline trained as an operatic soprano at Birmingham Conservatoire where she completed with distinction her Postgraduate Diploma in Vocal Performance. She won the Mario Lanza Opera prize, and when not singing opera is the vocalist with Chris Hill Jazz.
