Welcome to The Edinburgh Telephone Choir

We are an Edinburgh based choir who sing a wide range of light music at different events through the year. As well as sharing our passion for singing, the choir raises money for charities. We have two nominated charities at our annual show each year, and we perform for fundraising events organised by groups such as church guilds.

Concerts

Our annual show with our fantastic partners from KS Dance Academy and Broxburn and Livingston Band will take place at the Church Hill Theatre on Thursday 30 April and Friday 1 May at 7.30pm and Saturday 2 May at 2.30pm. Our theme this year is Peace and Harmony, and tickets are available here: https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/edinburgh-telephone-choir/

We will also be appearing at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe again this year, on Saturday 22 August at 7pm. Tickets will be available through the Fringe box office or, if still available, on the door at venue 405, The Salvation Army Edinburgh City Corps (1 East Adam Street).

Join Us

We would be delighted to speak to potential new members for our new season starting on Monday 8 September.

Although we occasionally sing in unison, most of our music is in three or four part harmony. It doesn’t matter if you don’t know whether you are a soprano, alto, tenor or bass; we will fit you in.

About the Choir

The Choir was formed in Edinburgh in 1947 by Mollie Scott, a Lady Supervisor in the then Rose Street Telephone Exchange, for ladies working in the exchange. The original ladies only choir recruited gentlemen in 1950 to enable a wider range of music to be undertaken with part singing.
