South Devon’s newest gospel style choir is inviting anyone
with a love of music to try it, whatever their singing ability.
The Newton Gospel Group is a non-religious choir open to men
and women over 16. Sessions start in January and potential members should
register their interest now.
There are no auditions so everyone - from experienced vocalists
to those who have never sung in public before – can join.
Says group leader
Megan Taper: “Gospel is a community style of singing that doesn’t exclude
anyone. You just need to love music and be willing to let your hair down. It’s
a great way to gain confidence in your voice and have a lot of fun at the same
time.”
Megan is an experienced musician who already runs the
popular Newton Community Choir. She also teaches singing and piano and performs
a wide range of musical styles at events around the region.
Gospel music has inspired many of the world’s most famous
vocalists including Aretha Franklin, Beyoncé, Whitney Houston, Ray Davis and
Elvis Presley.
The Newton Gospel Group will start weekly sessions at
7.30-9.00pm at the Avenue Church’s hall in Newton Abbot from 9th January
2012. Sessions cost £5 each or £30 for seven.
