Happy Birthday!

Over 40 Years & going strong

Many thanks must go to the founders but especially to Glynis and Cliff Rogers whose efforts are what made the choir we are today and with their youngest son Andrew following in their footsteps.

About Us

Welcome to Singing For Pleasure

Singing For Pleasure is the most successful charity fund-raising choir in Hertfordshire. 


Founded in November 1980 by musical directors Cliff and Glynis Rogers, it was the first ever community choir in the area and has gone from strength to strength, gaining local and national awards. 


Glynis & Cliff realised that there were a lot of people locally who would like to sing in a choir but were put off from joining because of the audition process that was prevalent in all the local choirs and amateur dramatic societies. 

With this in mind, Glynis and Cliff took away the audition process to join Singing For Pleasure. 

They were the first to do this in 1980, and it has been copied by most of the local choirs and musical societies since.  It was their bravery and forethought that led to Singing For Pleasure being the very first to achieve this. Something that Glynis still believes in to this day. 


The choir’s wide repertoire ranges from the easy-listening genre, including lively  

arrangements from popular entertainment, to joyous light classics and choral music.

Rehearsals

We rehearse every Friday (during term time) between 8pm & 10pm Howlands Baptist Church, The Commons, Welwyn Garden City, AL74RS.



Closer to concert time, we do have extra rehearsals scheduled (usually on Tuesday evenings)

Join us

Singing For Pleasure would love to hear from anyone who has a passion for  singing.  We have an open door policy from 16 to 160! Glynis and Cliff decided never to hold auditions to join Singing For Pleasure.


We remain the most value for money choir in the whole of Hertfordshire. A great way to make new friends


The ability to read music is not necessary, all we ask is a willingness to learn. 3 free taster sessions


For more information please see below.
