Farnham Rock Choir
Are you looking to find a choir? The Farnham Rock Choir is led by singing teacher Thomas George. You may know about our unique sellout O2 arena event in 2013 and our secret singing flash mobs around country for Comic Relief (just search 'Great British flash mob' on YouTube!), but at Rock Choir we know it's not just about the unique huge events, it's about our choir members singing in the community. Join your local Farnham Rock Choir to become part of this 'national phenomenon' (as described in the Sunday Times) and discover a whole new world of opportunities to perform and meet people. If you find yourself racing through the week with no time for yourself, or struggling to meet new people in the area, then joining your local branch of Rock Choir could be perfect for you. With our unique, no-pressure approach to teaching and fun, uplifting arrangements of your favorite hit songs Thomas will guide you through your weekly dose of music, fun and laughter. Here is a quote about our choir - 'Being part of the choir has given me a wonderful opportunity to belong to a fantastic venture into the world of contemporary music and given me a new lease of life. Singing in the choir is a much better 'pick-me-up' than any anti-depressant tablet prescribed by a doctor. I come away after the weekly choir session with the best feeling ever and the companionship with fellow members is something money can't buy.' - Janet (Rock Choir member) Rock Choir is a winner of the Red Ribbon 'Big Heart' Award [https://rockchoir.com/awards-achievements/]. and holds 1 former and 2 current Guinness World Records. The choir is also credited with single handedly starting the contemporary choir movement.Read more
