'NEWS': Epworth Choir was pleased to be able to support the vital work of THE CYSTIC FIBROSIS TRUST during 2007. The well-attended concerts raised over £3000 from retiring collections and a donation of £1000 was added by the choir.
Woking's Epworth Choir, one of Surrey's leading choirs, has a membership of over 120, attracting singers from West Surrey and North East Hampshire. The choir aims to sing music to a high standard whilst raising funds for charity. Each year, the Epworth Choir perform a spectrum of music ranging from a major choral work and carols in Guildford Cathedral to classical/popular music and carols at venues in Woking.
The Epworth Choir regularly fills Woking's New Victoria Theatre and other venues in the town with performances of Choral Classics, Popular Music and Carol Concerts to help raise money for local and national charities.
The Epworth Choir is a Registered Charity, No. 263007 and has, so far, raised more than £350,000 for good causes.
It was way back in 1958 that Mr Walter Deakin, a local businessman, gave Woking an organisation capable of giving and receiving enjoyment from music whilst raising money for charitable causes. Over the last 50 years, hundreds of singers have received great pleasure from being a member of the Epworth Choir.
THE CHOIR IS CELEBRATING IT'S 50TH BIRTHDAY IN 2008 WITH PERFORMANCES OF VERDI REQUIEM AND CARMINA BURANA - for details go to 'FUTURE CONCERTS'.
The Epworth Choir always welcomes new members. At present, TENORS and BASSES are particularly welcome. Look under 'CONTACT' to find out how to join the choir.
