🍁 Hello Autumn 🍁

Hello from us all here at Bristol Show Choir, and welcome to the Autumn Term! We’re so excited to get back to singing and bring back the special brand of musical theatre magic to the week again, be it at Southville, Clifton, Westbury on Trym or Downend. Before we rush headlong into sharing how the term is shaping up so far, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the end of our Summer term, that we, and our sister choir, Bath Show Choir marked with our Summer Spectacular concerts.

Singing at the wonderful St George’s Bristol is always a joy for us, but to have done so this year, the term where we’ve finally been able to reunite and sing together in person amidst the pandemic meant the whole day had a really special energy about it. We celebrated the likes of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie, Come From Away, Les Misérables and Porgy and Bess, all the while raising money for an incredible worthy cause, the Unicef Ukraine Appeal. It left us on such a high and we’ve been determined to carry that energy and momentum into our Autumn term.

Speaking of energy, there’s a definite up-tempo shift in the mood that shapes the repertoire for this term, and we’ve tried to pick more “feel good” show tunes to brighten up these autumn and winter nights. Each tune will get its own blog, but suffice  to say for now: there’s a familiar composer or two in the mix, and rather unexpected twists on classics that only Show Choir can bring!
