Singing is fun
Choral singing is good fun, relaxing and stress-busting. Singing in St. Helen's Church in York is a real privilege for Consonance; one that cannot be over-valued. To be there right in the heart of the City of York singing a service that is centuries old  is something very special and difficult to achieve and experience any other way. Do come along and listen!
