For many, learning to sing is the beginning of a passionate relationship with their voice that can last a lifetime, but it can be frustrating, trying to find an opportunity to use these new found or developing skills in their most obvious form – live performances.
To this end, many years ago the School began performance nights to give pupils the chance to sing in front of a real audience.
This developed into the unique 'Pop Choir' En Masse, that has performed all over the country as well as releasing two singles and an album. Indeed, the first single 'One' was featured on local news when it outsold artists like Boyzone and Elton John, in the area it was released, one Christmas. It went on to be the most requested song on the local radio station’s 'selector' show.
We are now very excited to report that En Masse has reached it’s latest incarnation with the birth of a brand new Southampton based performance group, The Love Soul Choir (www.lovesoulchoir.com)
Organized by SSPS vocal coach and one of En Masse’s long standing members, Steve Giles, The Love Soul Choir is perfect for anyone over 16 who loves to sing, whether they are beginners looking to develop their performance skills or seasoned professionals who want an opportunity that puts the social side and fun back into performing.
With rehearsals being held every Monday night at “NV” in Southampton, this exciting new group develops further the original En Masse concept of big group vocals in big live shows.
