Our members

Members of Imerys Engineering Male Voice Choir include singers from a variety of different backgrounds.

The life-blood of a male voice choir is new membership and we are always on the lookout for those who are interested in joining us. You do not need to be a soloist, but you need the will to learn, to make a commitment to the group and of course, to enjoy yourself.

The experience gained from singing to different audiences at a variety of venues and the camaraderie within the choir is reward enough. To know that in so doing you are also raising money for charity, makes it all the more worthwhile.
