About Us
Our Choir...
Founded in 2013 by singer songwriter Tanya Walker, the Alive & Kickin’ Community Choir Brecon is a choir for people of all backgrounds and singing abilities.
Thanks to Tanya’s enthusiasm and boundless energy, what started as a small choir with only a hand-full of members has now grown to a well-established and popular choir performing at many events in Brecon and beyond.
Due to Covid, we are currently rehearsing outside, and we are very grateful to Brecon Corries FC for use of their ground, where we can sing together in beautiful surroundings.
