Hackney Singers' Spring Concert inspired its audience at a packed St. John’s-At-Hackney by capturing the spirit of Edward Elgar’s Dream of Gerontius, one of the most powerful and difficult choral pieces of music in history.

“The overall standard was fantastic”, said audience member David Shaw. “There was something truly inspirational about it”.

Musical Director Mark Shanahan was almost lost for words saying simply "fabulous" a view shared by, audience and performers alike.

We regret to announce that at present we cannot enrol any more new members. We have had record numbers of new enrolments this year which means that we simply cannot accommodate any more new members. There are quite a few other amateur choirs in North and East London. North London Chorus are looking for new members. They also operate a no auditions policy. Further details are available from http://www.northlondonchorus.org.uk/. In addition the Festival Chorus who are also based locally have places available.
