The Citadel, in association with St.Helens Council, launch a brand new choir for St.Helens on Wednesday September 10th as part of pan-Merseyside vocal extravaganza Sing Out 08.

The programme brings together singers of all ages and abilities from across the region to perform a specially commissioned piece by BAFTA award winning composer Bill Connor, in honour of Liverpool’s Capital of Culture year.

Originally from Preston, Bill is a renowned composer and vocal arranger who has worked extensively for the BBC Singers, RLPO and on numerous community based projects. Over the course of the 12 week programme he will be sharing the wealth of his expertise with our own local talent to create a truly memorable singing experience.

The Citadel choir is open to all voices, male and female, aged 0-120, of all abilities and interests. No experience is necessary, you don’t need to read music – just your enthusiasm and a willing set of lungs!

Participants are also invited to attend a training day with Bill and local singing leaders at The Brindley Arts Centre, Runcorn on Sunday 7th September. Transport will be provided from The Citadel, free of charge.

Places are limited to forty so be sure to book now.

To reserve your place for both the choir and training day please contact The Citadel box office on 01744 735436 or by email at info@citadel.org.uk.
