"I joined the choir when I was eight, and it's been the best thing for me. At first I was nervous, but everyone's been really kind and welcoming." "Sometimes it's tricky, but that's what makes it fun. When you finally get it right, you get a sense of achievement." "We sing all sorts of music, from really old pieces written hundreds of years ago, to brand new commissions that were written just for us" "We also get to sing in amazing places, huge cathedrals, concert halls and sometimes even on TV or the radio!" "We sing for all the big festivals, Christmas, Easter and Southern Cathedrals Festival with our friends at Salisbury and Chichester Cathedrals." "Quiet time is the best! We still sing at services but it's the holidays so we have the boarding house all to ourselves and do tones of fun activities!" "Being a chorister isn't just about singing though, you learn loads of other sings too, like reading music, working as a team and being confident in front of people and we have great fun together. There's always lots of laughing - even in rehearsals" "We rehearse most days but it never feels boring." "I think the best bit is the feeling when everyone is singing together, with the organ, and the sound fills the whole building". "If you love singing and want to do something special, you should definitely think about becoming a chorister!".
