School Choir
The Fairfield Road Primary School Choir is a dynamic group of around 40 Key Stage 2 singers who rehearse weekly on Tuesdays after school. Committed to developing strong musical skills, the choir learns performance and vocal techniques through a diverse repertoire that challenges and excites them.
Choir members practice singing in two- and three-part harmony, using the solfa methodology to refine their pitch accuracy and harmony skills.
Throughout the year, the choir has numerous opportunities to showcase their talents both within school and beyond.
They collaborate closely with Tameside Music Services and the Greater Manchester Music Hub, participating in events such as Big Sings, workshops, Christmas concerts, and vocal evenings. These partnerships offer the students rich musical experiences, exposing them to new styles and performance settings.
One of the highlights for Fairfield Road choir members is the chance to perform in some of Manchester’s premier venues, including The Stoller Hall and the iconic Bridgewater Hall. These prestigious stages provide an inspiring environment for the young singers to share their hard work and joy for music with larger audiences, boosting their confidence and creating lasting memories as part of the Fairfield Road community.
