Welcome to Parenthesis
Choir!
Parenthesis is an amateur choir of over 60 mixed voices; soprano, alto, tenor and bass. It rehearses, sings and gives several concerts a year in and around Reading, UK. Parenthesis also has an A Capella (unaccompanied) group. The conductor is Valerie Hoppé and the accompanist is Martin Jones
