The Cheltones Singing Group has been meeting at the Cheltenham Playhouse since 2018 and has grown in confidence, size and sound since then!
Singing with a group of people is a joyful thing to do. There is safety in numbers and community singing can leave you feeling uplifted with a strong sense of belonging and achievement.
This concert is a celebration of all a community choir is about and is our first large, solo, group performance. Often we join one of the other choirs from The Cheltenham Singing Groups at local concerts.
We would love to share an eclectic mix of songs with you to show that singing is about more than performing!
