Wow! What a fantastic rehearsal last night! We were absolutely buzzing afterwards.. Our new songs are coming along brilliantly and we are working hard to sing off score now. We learn our songs from sheet music and from the sing-overs our fabulous section leads produce for us. But in our concerts we always sing without sheet music. We love how we can engage with our audience so much more when we don't look at music scores. |
We are busy planning our next concert on Saturday 20th April. this is a Charity Concert in aid of Craigbank Church, who have hosted us for nearly a decade now, as well as Marie Curie who do such an important and amazing job. Rehearsals are going well and we will sing a number of new songs and arrangement at our concert. Whether you have heard us before or are a new audience member, there certainly will be something you'd love in our repertoire.. Come and see us on 20th April at 7.30pm at Criagsbank Church! |
We had such a great day at St Michael’s for this, back in December! (Just taken a final piece of tinsel out of the music for that day…) Massive well done to all of those involved in making this happen for a deserving cause & thanks to our choristers who played their part too! ST MICHAEL'S CHURCH LINLITHGOW: We would like to thank everyone who supported our Festival of Christmas Trees 2023. We are delighted to let you know that the weekend raised the amazing total of £9,559.23. The money raised has now been sent onto our chosen charity for 2023, Quiet Waters. What an amazing amount and this is all down to each and everyone of the groups that participated, so thank you very much. |
With Valentine's Day approaching we dug out one of the old favourite songs 'Make you feel my Love'. And we felt it of course - we were all enjoying the song during rehearsal and we will perform it this Sunday at our Mini-Concert. |
A number of our visitors from the open reheasal night in January have now joined the choir and are enjoying the singing. They are learning new songs together with everybody else and are also catching up on some of our repertoire songs. It is lovely to have their voices amongst us! We are now looking forward to singing for some older folks (pssst! can't say more, because it is a surprise!). And we are planing our concert in lovely Craigsbank Church - our reheasal venue - but more on that later. |
We have had our first rehearsal of 2024 and put the Christmas songs aside. New songs to learn are always exciting and we would like to welcome more singers to join us! Open rehearsal night is on Sunday 21st January. Come and join us for a rehearsal, get to know us and how me sound and work on our songs. We are a friendly bunch - and you don't need a police connection to join. Please email edinburghpolicechoir@gmail.com for more details. See you soon ? |
Christmas is usually a very busy time of year for EPC, with numerous festive performances in our diary. One of our regular Yuletide appearances is on the steps of The Dome on George Street, Edinburgh, where we gather to sing some carols and other Christmas tunes and shake some buckets to raise money for Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity (ECHC). | |
