Build your singing skills every Saturday
Folkestone Junior Choir is a fun Saturday choir for young singers who want to build their skills, confidence and musicianship. At sessions, you’ll explore warm-ups, vocal games, harmony singing and a wide mix of songs, from folk and world music to classical and musical theatre. Members develop their voices together while enjoying the shared experience of group music-making.
Sing in harmony, perform with confidence and prepare for regular performances as part of a group of like-minded singers!
The choir is a great step for those who are keen to progress, including into our creative follow-on session Voice Explorers, which you can join at no extra cost. It will also provide a foundation for more advanced groups like Kent Youth Choir as you get older and build your skills.
