On the 5th June Thornden Community Choir will be taking to the stage at Thornden Hall for our summer spectacular.

Expect a thrilling showcase of musical diversity, blending soaring harmonies with energetic and unique arrangements of songs - some that you will know and others that will become your new favourites.

We have a full and varied programme for you, uniting many styles and genres in a toe-tapping display of local vocal talent!

With over 140 voices united in song, the Thornden Community Choir is a vibrant, non-auditioned choir that welcomes singers of all levels. Under the inspiring leadership of Musical Director Hannalie Bekker-van der Merwe, we call Thornden Hall in Chandlers Ford our home.

For 15 incredible years, we’ve been making waves as a dynamic, versatile, and professional-sounding choir. Our repertoire is a thrilling journey through music’s greatest genres—from the timeless elegance of classical and baroque to the soul-stirring power of gospel and spirituals. We groove to jazz, rock out to pop, and bring the magic of musical theatre to life. From the rich traditions of folk and world music to the soaring melodies of film soundtracks, there’s something for everyone in our performances.

Whether you’re a seasoned singer, just starting out or just want to watch and enjoy, Thornden Community Choir is where music, community, and joy come together. Come and be part of something extraordinary!
