Circle Singers membership is based upon an enthusiasm for a wide range of both sacred and secular classical music - ranging from medieval, renaissance and baroque music to works by living composers.

The choir meets regularly once a week at 7:45pm on a Monday evening for rehearsals at Radford Road Church, Leamington during the school term. In addition to the regular rehearsals members are required to attend special rehearsals held prior to concert performances.

The membership Fee for the Choir is £ 20 per term to cover the cost of the rehearsal venue and purchase of music.

The choir meets on an occasional basis for social evenings and events.

Membership of the choir is not limited to any specific age group and prospective members are not required to undertake an audition. They would, however, be required to show previous choral experience and reasonable sight reading capabilities.
