Vocal Sounds - Monton’s Choir for People Who Really Want to Sing
Vocal Sounds is a new kind of choir. We’re rooted in Monton, shaped by real people, and built around the belief that singing should feel good, sound great, and mean something.
We’re not a franchise, and we’re not just a casual singalong group. We rehearse with a live pianist. We’re led by a professional musical director with serious credentials and a great sense of humour. And we’re creating a space where people of all backgrounds can sing better, grow in confidence, and build lasting friendships.
No auditions. No pressure. Just a proper, musically fulfilling experience—with room to breathe, laugh, and learn.
Join a Taster Rehearsal – Free to Try!Why Join Vocal Sounds?
We started in early 2025 because we wanted something different: a place where singers could connect, feel inspired, and genuinely enjoy making music together.
Under the direction of Siân Davies—a professionally trained mezzo-soprano from the Royal Northern College of Music—we work on a broad mix of music: show tunes, pop and rock, gospel, and a little classical. Everything is shaped with care, performed with feeling, and rehearsed in a way that brings everyone along.
You’ll learn, you’ll laugh, and you’ll leave each session feeling better than when you arrived.
