28th November 2026 – Farnham Maltings
Are you a community choir singer who loves to sing but feels lost when looking at sheet music? This friendly, accessible workshop is designed just for you! In this practical session, we’ll explore how to navigate a piece of sheet music in a choir setting; following your specific voice part, following the lyrics, keeping your place, recognising common symbols, how to follow repeat marks etc. You’ll also be introduced to the basics of sheet music, including the stave, bars and note lengths, which will help with rhythm and timing of your choir songs.
For: Everyone, 18+. No experience necessary.
Workshops
Are you a choir leader looking for cover when you’re unavailable to lead a rehearsal, or perhaps you’d like to offer your singers something a little different for a session? I run a range of engaging and interactive workshops for choirs and would be very happy to travel to you.
- Circle Singing – this 1.5 hour welcoming workshop is for anyone who wants to build confidence with vocal improvisation, or choir leaders who would like to learn and share a new technique with their members. All group sizes work for this session, from 6-80 people!
For: Everyone, 18+ – email to book me to come to your choir: polly@fcvg.co.uk - Vocal Painting – Step into the creative world of Vocal Painting. A fun and expressive way to shape music in real time using hand gestures. We’ll start by learning familiar song choruses and then use simple signals to transform the sound by holding a chord, raising the volume, shifting the pitch, or looping a phrase. It’s a creative, spontaneous experience for singers of all abilities and lots of fun!
