Good Afternoon Choirs is delighted that Craig Northway is the leader of the Good Afternoon Choir Exmouth. We're excited to have him on board and look forward to seeing the choir continue to grow and flourish under his leadership.

A warm welcome awaits any new members, there are NO auditions and everyone is welcome! There is no charge for attending your first rehearsal. Come alone or with a friend – either way the Choir will be pleased to meet you. You will be joining over 1,000 people singing at Good Afternoon Choirs around the South West and beyond!

Membership forms are available to collect at every rehearsal. The choir rehearsals are in 4 terms of 10 weeks and members pay £63 per term – this covers room and piano hire, music, admin and musician fees. You do not need to join at the start of a term, you can simply come along to any rehearsal and pick up a membership form should you wish to join the choir – your fee will then be worked out for the remainder of that term.

If you have any questions about the Choir please contact Karin at at the Good Afternoon Choir offices via e-mail karin@grenvillemusic.co.uk or tel 01761 472468.
