Dartmouth Rock was established in 2013 by Jean Judge and Peter Johnson and taken on by Jeremy Kenyon in 2022.
​
The choir currently has around 70 members of varying ages and backgrounds. We are not a drop-in choir, so regular attendance is preferred, particularly if members wish to sing in concerts. Don't worry if you are unable to read music as songs are taught by ear. Sheet music and learning tracks for each part (soprano, alto, tenor, bass) can be downloaded from this website via the Music section.
Although we have a ‘no-audition’ policy, we would prefer members who are able to sing in tune and hold a part. A free taster session is offered to all potential new members. The cost thereafter is £6 per session. There are no further charges.
Tea/coffee/biscuits during rehearsal breaks, plus sheet music and word sheets are all covered by choir funds.​

Jeremy has returned to his home county of Devon to work in choir training and continues to teach around the country in schools and at Oxford University.
