Hoylake
Choral
society
is affiliated to making music (the National
Federation of Music Societies). The regional details are
to be found at Making
Music
North
West.
We
also
have an entry on the Gerontius
UK choir portal site.
Note learning
aides for the music we sing can often be found at sites
such as Cyberbass or
CVI choral Midi
(This site is
run by a French Choir). An extensive collection of rehearsal aids is
also maintained by John
Hooper.
These provide midi versions of much choral music that can be played by
computer as a guide to various parts.
A great number of choral scores are freely available on the internet
from sites such as Choral
Public Domain Library.
N.B. we
include these links in the hope they might be found useful. We have
not made any careful evaluation of them and their inclusion is in no
way a
formal endorcement by the society.
It is our practice to take a collection at each of our concerts. Over
the years these have allowed us to make sustantial contributions to
local charities including Hoylake
Cottage
Hospital
, Wirral Heart Beat and Crossroads Care.
Most of our
concerts and rehearsals make use of the Hoylake Chapel and hall.
