Busy Time for the Chorus

The Kingsmen have enjoyed a very busy time of sing-outs in the run up to Christmas 2022 - bringing song, joy and a spirit of harmony to local groups, communities and charities in South Hams, Devon.


Performances started early this year with the Chorus singing at the Thurlestone Hotel Christmas Fair in late November, followed by a jam-packed series of fundraising concerts for local causes and charities, including: Horsemanship for Health; Loddiswell Parish Church Restoration Fund (a Three Choirs Concert featuring the Kingsmen; Girls' Night Out; and the Loddiswell Pop Up Choir); and the South Hams Christian Fellowship Chapel in Kingsbridge. Performances have also taken place at the Heron Valley Christmas Carol events and at Royal William Yard Plymouth for their Christmas Fair and business/residents evening.


And a year is not complete without another wonderful return to the Children's Ward at Derriford Hospital where a small group of the Chorus sing and perform for the staff, children and their parents; and then finally to an annual favorite, a Chorus performance on Christmas Eve at The Cottage Hotel, Hope Cove.

The Chorus returns to rehearsals early in the New Year and with a focus of competing at the Saltash Music Festival in January and at the British Association of Barbershop Singers Convention, Sing2023, at Bournemouth in May.
