We are delighted to be welcoming the Newhaven Community Choir to the Museum for two special performances in our Zulu Gallery. Inspired by our current exhibition 100 Species the Choir will perform a short concert from our Zulu beach. The choir is a community that sings together ‘connecting people and place through the joy of song’.
The Choir was founded in Spring 2014 with funds raised by Duncan Bremner of Citizen Curator. His inspiration was to re-start a choir in Newhaven which was once known for both the singing of both the Newhaven Fishwives Choir and the Fisher Lassies. The choir was started under Jed Milroy’s musical direction and travelled around several locations in Newhaven, combining song, art and spectacle. Newhaven Community Choir is a friendly and informal group and welcome anyone who would like to sing with them. The choir has performed at various events and venues including The National Portrait Gallery, Newhaven Gala Day, and Anstruther’s Dreel Halls.
