The Good Afternoon Choirs are a project led by Bath music man Grenville Jones - www.grenvillejones.biz where the accent is on social, singing for people who have afternoons free.

There are now 12 Good Afternoon Choirs across the area with the Frome Good Afternoon Choir meeting every Monday afternoon from 2pm - 4pm (during term time) at Holy Trinity Church, and there is NO charge for attending your first rehearsal when membership forms will be available.

Grenville Jones, the founder of the Good Afternoon Choirs is delighted that Matthew Finch leads the choir. Matt also leads our South Gloucestershire and Yeovil GAC's.

Matt loves singing, rehearsing choirs and playing the piano. He has been Musical Director of Bath Light Operatic Group for over 20 years, so you may have seen the back of his head in the orchestra pit of the Theatre Royal Bath. Matt enjoys having fun, and singing some lovely music with the Frome Good Afternoon Choir.

The rehearsals run from 2pm to 4pm, there are no auditions and everyone is welcome. Many of the people in the Good Afternoon Choirs have never sung in a choir before, however each of the choirs has over 70 members.

The choir rehearsals are in 4 terms of 10 weeks and members pay per term, this covers room hire, music, admin and musician fees. You DO NOT need to join at the start of a term, you can simply come along to any rehearsal and pick up a members form should you wish to join the choir - your fee will then be worked out for the remainder of that term.

The Frome Good Afternoon Choir enjoys all sorts of music – from folk songs to choral favourites.

If you have any questions about the Choir please contact Nikki at Grenville's office in Westfield/Midsomer Norton for any information, by calling 01761 472468 or emailing [email protected] – or just come along to your first free session with a friend of course!
