Bristol's Choral Scene

From rehearsal rooms and chapels to pubs and cafes, every evening sees a different choir rehearsing somewhere in Bristol. Alongside traditional recitals of Handel and Mozart, Bristol is home to wealth of contemporary vocal gatherings. The Gurt Lush Choir play classic pop, The Great Sea Choir resurrect Sea Shanties and The Georgian Choir import acapellas from Eastern Europe. Lovers of complex vocal arrangements should not miss the 160 strong Gasworks Choir whole play regularly in and around Bristol.
