Finsbury Park Singers is conducted by Charles MacDougall, and was founded by Hannah Brine in 2018. We perform one main concert per term, plus smaller performances at community events and markets. There are a number of socials throughout the year, including weekly drinks after rehearsals, post-concert pub visits plus occasional meals out at our favourite local restaurants. Hannah also hosts an annual singing retreat that many of our singers attend.

We are very proud to be a very community minded choir – we regularly support local charities such as StreetLink, Islington Mind, Islington Food Bank and Single Homeless Project. We have raised over £10,000 for charity.

Finsbury Park Singers is currently oversubscribed and we have a waiting list for new members – to be added to it, please email assistant@hannahbrine.co.uk.

In the meantime, if you’d like to consider Victoria Park Singers, there are spaces available. The choir rehearses on Wednesday evenings in Hackney, and is also conducted by Charles MacDougall, so is a very similar vibe to Finsbury Park Singers.

Alternatively for sopranos and altos, we have spaces in Finsbury A Cappella, which is an upper voices auditioned choir that rehearses in the same venue as Finsbury Park Singers, also on Tuesdays but from 6.15pm to 7.15pm.

We also have a brand new choir starting in Walthamstow, which launches on 29 October. Walthamstow Singers will meet on Tuesday evenings from 7pm to 8.30pm at St Mary’s Welcome Centre Hall, 8 Church End, Walthamstow E17 9RJ, and is conducted by Tristan Weymes.
