THERE’S a working day ahead this Sunday for members of Honley Male Voice Choir.

Its musical director Steve Roberts is holding a special workshop to help the choir polish its skills ahead of the Cornwall International Male Voice Choir contest next month.

Steve has recently added extra Friday night rehearsals to the singers usual Tuesday night stints to prepare the choir for the contest at Truro on Saturday, May 4, and for the busy concert programme in the months ahead.

But he decided that a workshop on voice production would also be a big help. The workshop is being held at the Durker Roods hotel in Meltham in two sections.

The morning will be for the benefit of the general choir membership and the afternoon session will be devoted only to those members taking part in the contest and the songs they will be singing in Cornwall.
