| Grenoside Singers Grenoside Singers is a mixed-voice choir of around 50 men and women formed in January 2007 when the Grenoside Male Voice Choir opened its doors to ladies for the first time in its 56-year history they have been developing a new mixed-voice repertoire ever since. |
| Featuring traditional folk music and newly written songs from other countries, times and cultures. Sung in four part harmony this 80 strong choir has a wide ranging repertoire. Since the choir started in 2001 it has gone from strength to strength. At the start the aim was simply to get together a choir to put on a Christmas carol concert featuring some less well known carols and songs. The SpiteWinter concert of 2001 was so successful and enjoyable; it was decided to sing on!
