Euphonix is a community choir with a difference in Kingston, open to any adult of any age who would like to sing contemporary and popular songs, folk and world music. We rehearse upstairs in the Rose Theatre on most Wednesday mornings throughout the year (usual times here, only exceptions - e g, changes of venue, time or the occasional short break or special event, in the Euphonix Calendar) and we offer an inclusive, affordable experience of the benefits of singing regularly with others: companionship, developing musicality and pure enjoyment.
"It's very uplifting to sing, and good to meet new people." (Euphonix member, April 2009. See what other members say they get out of singing with Euphonix here.)
Our name comes from the same roots as
- Euphonia (pronunciation: yOO-fō'nē-u, -fōn'yu): any of several small birds of the genus Euphonia, which have a melodious song.
- Euphony: the quality of having a pleasing sound.
- Euphonic; Euphonious: pleasant-sounding.
We are a not-for-profit community group, managed by volunteers and led by profesional musician Dominic Stichbury. We are very grateful for a small grant from the Royal Borough of Kingston, awarded to Euphonix in April 2009 to help establish the choir securely and recruit more members from hard-to-reach groups.
More information about our programme, and our aims and philosophy, as well as how to contact us, can be found on the pages listed in the menu to the left. The FAQs section may answer any queries you have.
Euphonix has proved very popular since its beginning, so we now run two sessions on Wednesday mornings (click here for info about a typical rehearsal). We prefer to welcome new members at the start of each Euphonix term - please contact us to check availability of places, times, and term dates before coming to a rehearsal. Our next intake of new members is January 2011.
