About the Brue Boys Choir for Men

Discover the love of singing
Several men from the Mendips are having fun and increasing their love hormones at the same time - and it is all in the name of singing. A male singing group has just been started by Baltonsborough conductor Jennifer Martin and it already has 20 members from 25 to 80 years old from Baltonsborough and surrounding villages.
Novice singer John Moody said " Singing is one of the last things I would be doing this year but I read recently that it is good for your well-being and increases your love hormones so I decided to join."
Estate agent Paul Knight said: "I've not sung since I was at school but I'm from Wales and we all think we can sing so I decided to come along and it's lots of fun."
Conductor Jennifer Martin agreed: "Men's voices always sound lovely and I think the group makes a very heartwarming sound when they sing together: Any men in the area who fancy a go at singing are welcome to join us, whether they are complete beginners or have some experience. "We have a fantastic space to rehearse in The Stalls, Tilham Farm, Tilham Lane in Baltonsborough. We have no membership fee, but charge £1 a night to cover premises costs.

Early Practice at The Stalls Tilham Farm
From strength to strength The Brue Boys continues to attract new members, and others are welcome to come along just to see if they enjoy the atmosphere, even if they're not sure beforehand whether they are top tenor, tenor, baritone or bass. Four concerts were completed in the choir's first year and it is hoped many people will be able to attend future concerts (see News Page for details) Many of the boys meet up for drink after rehearsals at The Greyhound in Baltonsborough and a first meal together with partners was held in February 2008.
