Biography
Our choir is part of the University of the Third Age movement, where: We do something brilliant today.
We draw from the local U3A centres of Fareham, Gosport, Locks Heath and Stubbington. We meet weekly on Monday afternoons at the Hall on Mays Lane, Stubbington. We sing songs of all kinds: Folk songs, Traditional songs, Gospel songs, Songs from the Shows, and anything else we fancy!
Our conductor is Jay Deeble and our accompanist today is Azalia Nugaleva. Both are well known and respected local musicians. You may already have come across them somewhere else, with another hat on.
We enjoy singing for other people and sharing our music. Thank you for having us.
