'The Choir history goes back over 150 years. We are a friendly amateur choir who enjoy singing and welcome new members without audition. Performing a wide variety of major choral works; supported by professional soloists and orchestra as necessary. The breadth of our repertoire extends from oratorio to opera and folk to specially commissioned pieces. December brings our locally famous Christmas concert where we are supported by children from local schools.'
‘Set up in 2010 to promote singing for wellbeing and explore the positive health benefits of singing ... Beccles Community Choir welcomes ANYBODY and EVERYBODY. We sing Jazz, Musicals, Pop, Spirituals, Gospel, Ska and other styles based on a list of songs that the choir decides to sing ... In 2012, our sister choir Bungay Community Choir started ... and carries on our ethos – to be a small and friendly community; welcoming and fun. All the things we believe music should be.’
‘Constituted in its present form in 1965 by singers in and around the market town of Beccles, which lies on the River Waveney (hence the Group's name) ... The Society has gone from strength to strength since its inception and is now one of the premier entertainment societies in its area, drawing audiences from far and wide. The Group is purely amateur, but always aims to present a professional approach in all it does ... Until 1978, productions were taken solely from the works of Gilbert & Sullivan but since then all forms of light opera have been attempted, ranging from classical favourites to modern comedies. A further advance was made in 1992, when we began to present a show in the spring as well as our main production in the autumn ... Our most recent endeavour was the establishment in 2010 of a "youth section", known as WLOG Rising Stars, devoted to developing the talents of performers up to the age of 19yrs.’
‘The vision of the Beccles Public Hall directors and management team is to develop a centrally located facility, where local people can access and enjoy a wide range of activities from events, concerts and performances to special interest groups. Our project aims to provide the Public Hall, for the first time in its history, a management structure that will ensure its long term future. This new energy will drive the project forward bringing fresh ideas, uses and sustainability.’
‘A restored 18th Century Norfolk barn set in the heart of rural South Norfolk, near to the beautiful Waveney Valley and Southern Broads town of Beccles. Many world class musicians, ensembles and orchestras have performed in our annual concert series and recorded here ... With a stage at one end, large enough to accommodate two grand pianos, chamber orchestra or choir, complete with wonderfully responsive acoustics, described by visitors as a “mini Snape Maltings”, there is seating for an audience of 120.’
