At present we have nineteen members, including our musical director and accompanist, both talented pianists who sometimes provide a contrast to the choir’s singing with their piano duets. Reflections have given concerts in support of local charities, sometimes sharing the privilege with other choirs and soloists. Many of our venues have been for religious organisations, either within their services and celebrations, or for their related charities. Our repertoire is very varied and includes sacred music and Songs from shows and films, with composers from Bach to Goodall, Cole Porter to Elton John.

Our diary can always accommodate new bookings, so if you would like to have a choir at your event or function, don't hesita...    less
