Ignite
Youth Choir 

BRAND NEW for 2026!

IGNITE is our brand new choir aimed at talented young singers. We have many very successful Adult choirs but we initially started (nearly 20 years ago!) as a youth choir and we can't wait to get back to our roots!

What Can I Expect?

Our main focus is building technique as well as ensemble singing skills in an uplifting environment. Within our bespoke arrangements we give solo opportunities to those that want to push themselves even further and we keep our numbers low to ensure that every voice is heard and developed by our choral directors.

​

All of our Choral Director are highly skilled vocalists who have worked as vocal teachers/lecturers and performers for many years. They are extremely highly regarded in both the performing industry and the educational world.

 

We will be working towards:

- Two performances per year (Summer and Winter)

- One or two competitions, initially regionally but looking to the national competitions next year. We were highly successful in these festivals with our previous youth choir!

​

The only reason we stopped having a youth choir was because the members all grew up and didn't want to leave so it just morphed into an adult ensemble!

We can't wait to welcome you to IGNITE!

​

Cambridge Ignite: Thursday in term-time, 6.30-7.30pm

Bury St. Edmunds Ignite: Friday in term-time, 6.30-7.30pm
