Original Songs and Arrangements, Sung with Passion and Commitment
Glorious Chorus was created by Helen Yeomans in September 2003. Initially an outlet for Helen’s songwriting, the choir quickly developed a reputation for passionate, polished performances. She chose to start auditioning members early on in order to keep the standard already established. From then on, the rest is history. Prestigious performance invites included Port Eliot Festival, Glastonbury Festival and in 2017 the Voices Now choir festival at The Roundhouse in London.
Glorious Chorus drew it’s members from all over Devon - one member even travelled from Penzance! Helen demanded commitment and an unashamed aspiration to excellence. The choir worked hard and played hard, it’s after-gig parties becoming legendary. The choir enjoyed collaborating with acclaimed artists and bands including Ninebarrow and the Spooky Mens Chorale. These memories are now etched in the members' minds forever, a reminder of how brilliant and heart-touching this unique choir was to singer and listener alike.
