Choirs

Sally is a choir leader with a dynamic and infectious style, who delights in passing on the repertoire she loves both to the singers and the audience.

The choirs she works with each have a unique sound brought about by the broad sphere of music Sally has worked in and the passion she has for unusual and special harmonies. She sources an exhilaratingly varied repertoire and draws the best out of a diverse group of singers. Her choirs give regular performances in and around London and occasionally abroad.

The Wing-It Singers meet in Hackney and sing songs from many world traditions but specialize in Georgian, Balkan, Mediaeval, newly arranged British folk and original contemporary compositions. www.wingitsingers.org.uk

She led the Cecil Sharp House Choir for 10 years until 2019 which sang mostly her own arrangements of songs from the British Isles sourced from the archives plus a few from other folk traditions. Some of these arrangements are published in her book Lovers, Legends and Laments. Many more will shortly be found in the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library archives at Cecil Sharp House. https://www.efdss.org/cecil-sharp-house

Sally also runs one-off workshops and regularly ‘guest teaches’ at other people’s choirs and singing festivals. (Raise the Roof, World of Song, Dartington International Summer School, Kings Place folk weekend, Winchester Community Choir, Alton Community Choir, Sing Fest, Bellow Fellows etc)

Sally believes passionately that it is everyone’s birthright to sing and that it is never too late to join a choir and to find or develop your voice. She is a member of the Natural Voice Network.
