1 'Making Music in torbay' - a history of the Choir

A book will be available early March 2012 (following our 140th Anniversary celebrations), which will cover the entire history of the Choir from 1871- 2011.   Anyone interested in some of the historical events particularly relating to music which took place in the Torbay area, and an insight into the internal workings and management of a large choir during the end of the 19th, 20th and early part of the 21st century should find this book fascinating.
Copies of the book can be pre-ordered, price £9.50 (p/p extra) from the Secretary of the Choir (please see the Contact Us section).

2  'Devon Musical Notes'
The Choir Secretary produces, on behalf of the Choir, a quarterly publication (Jan, Apr, July, Oct) entitled 'Devon Musical Notes'.   The newsletter endeavours to co-ordinate and assist societies when planning their concert programmes, and includes 60 Devon choral, operetta, opera, music clubs, orchestras and bands performing classical or light classical music.   'Devon Musical Notes' is in diary form despatched by e-mail to all societies and is also sent to 31 local media, publicity, libraries and tourist points.   There is no charge for this service.
Please contact the Choir Secretary if your society (providing it is in Devon, performs music in the above styles and is not professional) would like to be included.
