The National Teachers Choir (NTC) is an unauditioned choir that builds singing confidence and achieves singing excellence. It brings together anyone involved in teaching from across the country, to develop them as a national choir and celebrate the power of the voice.

 

NTC:-

• Explores vocal techniques, repertoire and leadership

• Enhances musicality and choral excellence

• Performs to a high standard in national public arenas

• Learns and disseminates good practice around vocal health for teachers

• Shares ideas for developing singing in schools and across music education hubs

• Enjoys the wider benefits of singing together

 

By:-

• Offering weekend programmes of rehearsals and workshops, with top quality leadership

• Securing, and working towards, national performance opportunities

 

Repertoire

A range of styles and genres, including popular and light classics, uplifting gospel and other random and funky stuff. We learn everything in a single weekend - fast paced but fun. We're going to challenge and inspire you, but don't worry about being able to read music - there are other ways!

​

How does it work?

We hold weekend sessions once per term in different places around the country, bringing with us NTC members and recruiting teachers from the local area. It's a great opportunity to visit new places, get away from it all and enjoy singing with other teachers. At the end of the Summer term we have an annual residency at Snape Maltings - the musical mecca on the Suffolk coast - which is the perfect way to unwind after the rigours of the academic year.
