The Costa Blanca Singers were established in September 2022. The intention from the offset was to create a fun and friendly group who could enjoy singing in a relaxed atmosphere with likeminded people, to develop friendships and to share the pure enjoyment of singing as a group. The Costa Blanca Singers are a non-profit making group who donate to local causes.

Between our Musical Director & Assistant Musical Director, they have extensive musical knowledge, experience and ability. Within the members, there is a range from many years of experience & talent, through to first time singers. Everyone has equal importance and all members encourage each other to reach full potential.

The warm up is 5/10 minutes and varies from week to week. Rehearsals are also different. There may be new songs to assess for inclusion. We may revisit previous songs or we may be preparing for performances and at that time, we focus on our chosen set.
