About Us
Imerys Singers
This choir of around 30 ladies was formed in 1970 in response to demand from employees of what was then the English China Clay Company, which was supporting several male voice choirs. Starting as the John Keay House Ladies Choir, under the leadership of Joan Richards, and later led by John Richards, it grew in numbers and excellence, becoming the ECC Ladies Choir and winning many prestigious prizes in local and national festivals. The choir was directed by Ann Fleet from 1994-2013, in that time the company became part of the Imerys Group, hence another name change and with it a change of style, introducing a wider and lighter range of music. Heather Vaughan has been the Musical Director since 2014.
The Singers perform as requested by any organisation seeking to raise funds and also at weddings and other occasions. Every Christmas they perform for their own charity, Cornwall Hospice Care.
Songsters
The Imerys Songsters is a small group of singers from the choir who perform lighter repertoire in smaller venues.
