Jigsaw Sound is a new adult, mixed voice choir, based in Shrewsbury, Shropshire.
Whilst the main aim of the choir is to sing and have fun together through the medium of music it is significantly different from many other choirs or choral societies, in that it deliberately aims to draw most of its membership from people who have never sung in a choir before.
Jigsaw Sound is also most suitable for experienced singers, in and around Shrewsbury and Shropshire, who can in turn use their talent and experience to help novices on the journey to choral excellence.
We know from our members that many of them were ‘put off’ singing at school by that infamous tap on the shoulder! Other potential singers are put off joining an established choir or choral society, because they have no experience, do not read music, or are too shy. So, if this is you, why not give us a try?
We have expanded rapidly since our formation and now have a membership of 45, mainly made up of people from Shrewsbury, but also, increasingly, from other parts of Shropshire, who had never sung in a choir before but have always wanted to. View our picture gallery!
We are drawn from all sorts of backgrounds and have a wide age range so no one will feel out of place.
We really want to help people, who want to sing in a choir achieve their wish to do just that in a friendly and non-threatening environment. You can come to a weekly rehearsal in Shrewsbury, no strings attached, and meet us and see what we do. A warm welcome is guaranteed as well as lots of fun.
We sing a wide range of musical styles including popular songs, light sacred music, folk songs and show songs.
Jigsaw has an active ‘social life’ in Shrewsbury and around Shropshire with various events for members and their partners and friends to share in.
The choir will be going on a musical tour to Germany in August 2009.
