Sing for Pleasure offers something for anyone who enjoys singing in a friendly atmosphere. We encourage the enjoyment of choral singing, with that enjoyment leading to higher standards of performance.

If you enjoy singing, we organise day, weekend and week-long events, ranging from relaxed Singing Days to courses with more challenging repertoire. Events include regional singing 'houseparties' and non-competitive festivals and may involve joining with orchestras to perform major works.

Many courses include an element of vocal training, and longer courses often have a resident specialist.

If you want to sing abroad, we take groups of singers to other countries and often welcome choirs here, to give concerts and enjoy our hospitality.

If you are a frustrated Pavarotti who only dares to sing in the bath, we can build your confidence. Events include Singing Days and longer courses concentrating on easier music designed to help the less experienced singer and to develop sight-singing skills.

Advanced singers can be challenged with exciting repertoire by forming the choir for the advanced conductors.

SfP also publishes song collections containing a wide variety of enjoyable songs and arrangements for a range of ages and abilities and from a broad selection of musical traditions. Our songs have given choirs much useful and enjoyable material and are clearly presented and reasonably priced. For more information, please see the publications page.
