Copyright © All rights reserved.Liss Community Choir

Liss Community Choir grew out of a “Liss Sings” event at the Village Day in 2011. We are a non-auditioned mixed choir of approximately thirty five singers directed by Margaret Gussman who is an experienced singer and teacher.  You don’t have to be able to read music, but you will pick things up very quickly and we have an enormous amount of fun singing every week.

What we sing
Our range of music is very wide from The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, songs from the shows such as Oliver, My Fair Lady, Oklahoma, South Pacific, Mamma Mia and Joseph and His Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. We also sing several folk songs, some of which have been arranged by our accompanist Lucy Flint, as well as pieces by Mozart and Vivaldi.

Where we sing
We give regular performances for local organisations and in June 2014 put on our first full evening concert, in St Mary’s Church, Liss, and raised over £1,000 for The Rosemary Foundation. For our summer concert 2015, with our thanks to Liss Infant School for hosting our weekly rehearsals, we raised £500 for the school.

Southern Spinal Injuries Trust

Our Summer Concert and BBQ in 2016 raised the superb total of £1,060 for the Southern Spinal Injuries Trust, which was our chosen Charity.  Our grateful thanks to all who contributed; our donation will help the Charity to continue its work in assisting those with spinal injury.

Next Concert
Saturday 1 July 7:30 in St Mary’s Church, Liss
admission free, retiring collection in aid of the
Petersfield Counselling Service.

We are looking for a new conductor starting in September 2017.

The choir was founded six years ago and now has some 50 members. We are a non-auditioned choir who sing from a great variety of music, mostly popular and from the shows, with occasional classical pieces.
We meet on Wednesday evenings from 7.30 to 9.30pm in Liss, rehearsing for three 10-week terms. Our main concert is in the summer when we raise funds for local charities. We have an excellent accompanist who has also arranged and composed music for the choir. For further information or to apply, please email: lisscommunitychoir@gmail.com
