Join Us
Are you a keen young singer? Fulfil your potential and join us NOW! The two Haddo Junior Choirs are recruiting now for new members. If you want to learn how to sing and have fun at the same time, why not join? The choirs are amongst the best in Scotland and regularly win competitions and get brilliant reviews for concerts they do throughout the North East. Haddo Youth Choir - presently part of the Haddo Combined Treble Voice Choir - is for youngsters from Senior 1 to age 24. It rehearses on a TUESDAY at Ellon Parish Church, from 7.00pm - 8.30pm. On joining, you will find that all aspects of your singing improve week by week. Many past and present singers take leading roles in local productions and/or win competitions as soloists partly because of the training they receive with Haddo. You can learn all, and more, than you can in expensive private lessons. The choir is open to both boys and girls. JOIN US ON or after AUGUST 24TH!! If you want more details ring Alice Dennis on 013587 22977. Haddo Children’s Choir is for singers aged from Primary 1 - 7. They rehearse on a WEDNESDAY 6.00 - 7.00pm in the same place. You are given the rare opportunity of having your young voice gently trained and you learn to sing in harmony with a challenging and exciting repertoire. Professional singers agree that choirs are the best way to train young people to sing. Alice is presently on a recruitment drive , touring the local primary schools. Maybe you enjoyed the workshops and want to know more? There will be lots of new boys and girls on October 6th. There is no obligation to join - try for 2 weeks before committing. Come along and make some new friends! JOIN US ON or after OCTOBER 6TH!! If you want more details ring Alice Dennis on 013587 22977. Ellon Parish Church is situated in the Old Square in Ellon, near the Ashvale fish and chip shop. If you're coming in to Ellon from the South, turn right after crossing the river. The church is tucked away on the right hand side of the road when you reach the square. We are extremely grateful to the church for allowing us to use this beautiful venue. Sometimes HYC rehearse in the Kirk centre which is across the square next to Cost Cutters (2nd Tuesday of the month) so if you cant find us at the church, try there! Sometimes HCC rehearses in the Peatyards at Haddo House. Please be sure to check the schedule before leaving your house! Haddo is our home and its nice to be back there occasionally when EPC is unavailable. Everyone is welcome to join either of the two HJCs at any time throughout the year, there are no auditions and it costs just £20 per year. Just turn up on any Tuesday or Wednesday and start a new hobby this week and make new friends! Please download the registration form below and bring with you to any rehearsal.
