Singing in the New Year – for now on Zoom, together again soon…

Timeline Choir Begins 2021 Online

Leith Hill and Cambridge Timeline Choirs will remain online for the first term of 2021. Rising Covid-19 infection rates and the new national lockdown mean that we still cannot gather and sing in the same space, but we’ll nevertheless be as together as we possibly can, thanks to Zoom. Claire and Stef have been learning fast and adapting to the new technologies, and are better than ever at recreating the togetherness of the choral singing experience in spite of us all being physically apart.

Like last term, Claire and Stef will continue to work together and Leith Hill and Cambridge members are welcome to attend rehearsals on Tuesdays with Claire and/or Thursdays with Stef. We’re also welcoming new members this term, taking advantage of the opportunity to sing with friends from around the world… which is one of the silver linings of this strange digital singing period. 🙂

Each choir will run a weekly online rehearsal for an hour:
  • Leith Hill Timeline Choir (Claire): 7:30-8:30pm – Tuesday evenings (from Surrey)
  • Cambridge Timeline Choir (Stef): 7:00-8:00pm – Thursday evenings (from Cambridge)
Our term will run for 10 weeks:
From Tuesday 12th  and Thursday 14th Jan
to Tues 23rd and Thursday 25th March 
(With a HALF TERM break in the week commencing Monday 15th Feb.)

As well as these weekly sessions, Claire, Stef, and Jon will be sharing warmup videos, rounds, technical tips, fun songs, tutorials for harmony parts, and much more as the term progresses. We will keep you well-stocked with heart-warming harmony during these troubling times!

Leith Hill Timeline Choir Begins the Spring Term with a Zoom session on Tuesday 12th Jan, 7:30–8:30pm, live from Claire’s living room. Invitations to the Zoom rehearsals arrive by email at the beginning of every week. You can email Claire to sign up or read more here.

Cambridge Timeline Choir begins with a Zoom session on Thursday 14th Jan, 7:00–8:00pm, live from Stef’s living room (now featuring special guest performers, Maxi and Maia, the Bengal Terrors of Madras Road). Invitations to the Zoom rehearsals arrive by email at the beginning of every week. You can email Stef to sign up or read more here.

Timeline Choir is a community singing group with a difference: although it is open to all, with no auditions and no requirement for members to be able to read music, the choir is set apart by its specially-arranged and artistically ambitious repertoire, which celebrates the heritage of the local area, from Anglo-Saxon times to the present day.
