About Us

The Fisher Singers (formerly St John Fisher High School Community Choir), was formed in September 2003. Our links with the school are still maintained as a member of the Fisher Arts programme. We are a true community choir, and welcome enthusiastic singers of all ages. There are no auditions and members do not need any previous singing experience. All that is required is a desire to sing and explore new music. Throughout the year we perform concerts in a wide range of styles from popular songs from shows to classical pieces.

We rehearse on Monday evenings from 7:00pm during school term dates at St John Fisher Catholic High School in Harrogate.

We look forward to seeing you at our forthcoming events:
