How to Find News, Concerts and Contact Details for The Glasgow Phoenix Choir

Updated

The official website, phoenixchoir.org, is the central place to check for choir news, concert announcements, social media updates and contact routes. The homepage highlights a Latest News section (currently announcing a Christmas Concert "on sale now"), a Facebook feed with a follow link, and two contact paths: the Choir Manager for membership enquiries and the Choir Secretary for all other enquiries.

What You Can Find on the Homepage

The site is a single-page hub that brings together the choir's main public information. According to the site content, it includes:

  • Latest News – event announcements, such as the Christmas Concert currently on sale
  • Latest Recording – the choir's most recent release, All in the April Evening
  • Join the Choir – a recruitment note directing interested singers to the Choir Manager
  • Video and Facebook Feed – embedded social updates with a "Follow us on Facebook" link
  • TV and radio credits – appearances including the BBC Proms, Smooth Radio, Radio Scotland's "The Reel Blend" and an episode of BBC Scotland comedy "Still Game"

Checking Concerts and Buying Tickets

  1. Open phoenixchoir.org.
  2. Look for the Latest News section on the homepage.
  3. Read the current announcement — for example, the Christmas Concert listing marked "on sale now".
  4. Follow the linked details in that announcement for the event and ticket information.

The site does not publish a separate full concert calendar or ticketing page in the available content, so the Latest News section is the place to watch for new event announcements. If a specific concert is not listed there, use the contact routes below to ask.

Following the Choir on Social Media

The homepage embeds a Facebook feed showing recent posts, followed by a "Follow us on Facebook" link. This is the quickest way to see day-to-day updates, photos and reminders between website news items. The site also embeds a video section.

Contacting the Choir

The site gives two distinct contact routes, so choose based on your purpose:

Your enquiry Contact
Joining the choir as a singer Choir Manager
All other enquiries (concerts, bookings, general questions) Choir Secretary

Both contacts are reachable through the links on the homepage under "Join the Choir" and "For all other enquiries".

Background That Helps With Enquiries

Knowing what the choir is can help you frame a question or decide whether to get in touch:

  • A mixed-voice SATB choir of approximately 90 singing members, ranging from teenagers to octogenarians
  • Founded in 1951, continuing a tradition begun in 1901 by the disbanded Glasgow Orpheus Choir
  • A library of over 1,000 titles and over 30 albums recorded
  • Repertoire spanning musicals, pop, Scottish song, oratorio, opera, chamber music and sacred music
  • Performs throughout Scotland, the wider UK and occasionally Europe

Common Sticking Points

  • No visible ticket link on the homepage itself — ticket details sit within the Latest News announcement, so open that item rather than searching the page for a box office.
  • Two contact addresses can be confusing — membership goes to the Choir Manager; everything else to the Choir Secretary. Using the wrong one may slow your reply.
  • Concert listings change — the news section reflects current announcements, so check back rather than relying on an old search result.
