Welcome to East Bridge Chorale
Now in its thirteenth year, East Bridge Chorale held its first concert in 2010 and our membership has increased steadily ever since. Under the expert direction of Benedict Preece we have performed many major works, often accompanied by full orchestra. We enjoy performing in the Colyer-Fergusson Hall at The University of Kent and St Mary’s Arts Centre in Sandwich. We warmly welcome new members, so if you are interested in singing with us, please get in touch using the contact details below.

We warmly welcome new members. No audition is required, just a sense of musicality and a joy in singing with others. We are starting rehearsals early next year for our spring concert which will be Handel’s Alexander’s Feast.
