Under our Musical Director, Jonathan Power, we give a number of concerts each year, mainly in West and North Yorkshire.
Most of our concerts are given at the invitation of local groups, as part of their charitable fundraising activities. The expenses of running the choir are covered by members' subscriptions and modest charges made for our services.
