Welcome!

Based across South Tyneside, Choirmaster is a vibrant and exciting no fuss choir inspiring voices and changing lives! We sing pretty much anything!
Choirmaster is open to absolutely anyone 16+, with the motto that ‘everyone can sing!’ Whilst there is absolutely no pressure to perform, we will of course encourage performance opportunities throughout the year!
Choirmaster is open to anyone! We don't use sheet music or hold any auditions!
We have a fabulous social life too with endless parties, beach picnics, countless trips away and more coffee mornings than we care to count! You will make new friends for life!
We can't wait to meet you!

Choirmaster – A Year In The Life

In February 2019, we had an idea. We wanted to bring a community together through a love of singing, music and performing.

The room is set for another fabulous morning of singing at Choirmaster! #southtyneside #singing #choir

Wow! What an emotional night! Last night we return

Wow! What an emotional night! Last night we returned to our rehearsals indoors.... The music was beautiful, the atmosphere overwhelming and the singing was just phenomenal!!! I don't usually shed a tear, but last night I did!
We took temperature checks on arrival, our singers remained socially distant, still wore masks when moving throughout the venue and respected each others personal space...
The best part is.... we get to do it all again today at 11am with another bunch of fabulous singers!!!

ATTENTION AFTERNOON TEA LOVERS! After a challeng

ATTENTION AFTERNOON TEA LOVERS!

After a challenging and difficult year, it is time for a treat! Either for yourself or your mum to remind her exactly how special she is! That is why, this Mother’s Day we want to do something a little different as many of us won’t be able to spend time and celebrate with our Mum’s in the usual way.

As many of you know, our founder Adam Allinson has performed and played the piano for Afternoon Tea at The Savoy, The Ritz, Harrod’s, Claridge’s, The Dorchester and even on Queen Mary 2. Not only that, Adam LOVE'S taking afternoon tea SO MUCH that he even produced a Radio Documentary on it when I worked at the BBC. Afternoon tea and Mother’s Day are two joyous marriages that go hand in hand!

SO….This Mother’s Day (14th March), Adam will be on Zoom for 2 hours from 2pm-4pm performing your requests live on the piano, telling some tales and stories as well as talking you through the wonders of afternoon tea! The only things you need to bring are your favourite hot beverages (Adam's is Yorkshire Tea!) and your sandwiches, scones and cakes! This special day is open to absolutely everyone! Even if you just fancy popping along and treating yourself to something a little bit different… then why not!?

How will it work? We wan’t to keep this as open to as many people as possible therefore this fabulous occasion is only £5.00 per household. Adam will be online from 2pm-4pm and you will receive the Zoom details in plenty of time. Just get yourself and your mum signed into Zoom and have your afternoon tea and musical requests ready to go! You might even want to pair it with a glass or two of bubbly!

A fabulous morning today! Delighted to have one of our singers, Alice Turner perform at a special event for Age Concern Tyneside South! Well done Alice!

We have some exciting news to share. It is with a heavy heart that we are having to announce that we are leaving our previous home in South Shields. Since we launched in February 2019 we have been based at Ocean Road Community Centre.

We have had a lot of sleepless nights and discussions over the past week in relation to Choirmaster returning. Due to covid-19 regulations we would have been having to operate up to six rehearsals a week to fit everyone in. It was also apparent that we would have had to move people from their regular rehearsal day and potentially break up friends who have been coming through our doors since day one. This is not something we wanted.

Therefore... We have taken the decision to move our home. We are delighted to announce that when we return on Monday 7th September and Tuesday 8th September we will be returning to The Hedworth Hall. This is a fabulous venue, with a huge ballroom and incredible acoustics under a stunning chandelier! It also has a wonderful bar and restaurant perfect for drinks and refreshments too!!

Given everything that has been happening this year, I know this announcement will hopefully put a lot of our singers minds at ease. Our Hebburn choir will remain at The Elmfield Social Club.

We have already contacted everyone who has so far booked for rehearsals but we need more of you!

Call us today! 07854 829091 or 07984 890664 to prebook for our fabulous choir returning next week!

We have a number of exciting projects in the pipeline and some amazing songs to start too!

Thank you for all of your incredible support!

We can't wait to see you soon!

Adam & Kevin!
