The First Decade

The only barbershop chorus for women in the county of Nottinghamshire was formed in September 1992 by a group of teachers and students at Arnold Hill Comprehensive School, Nottingham.

After two years of lunchtime rehearsals at the school, there was a need to take it all rather more seriously and so the Lace City Singers chorus was born.

These days the chorus draws its members from all parts of the East Midlands with every decade from the teens to the sixties represented. We meet on Wednesday evenings, from 7.15 to 9:45 pm at the Wheldon School, Carlton, Nottingham. Visitors are always welcome.

The chorus' name is derived from Nottingham's history as a leading manufacturer of lace. TOP

Glenn Chaney - Musical Director

Director Glenn Chaney, a barbershopper since 1980, is a professional singing teacher and holder of the Certificate of Teaching from the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music. Working at his Nottingham studio he teaches singers of all ages and abilities and he also travels around the UK, coaching choruses and quartets. Glenn has directed the Lace City Singers since their formation and he also directs the Major Oak Chorus which he formed in 2003. In recognition of their work with and on behalf of young singers, Glenn and his wife Alyson (multiple Regional quartet champion, Lace City tenor section leader and director of the Lincoln Sounds Chorus) received the European Music Educators Association award in 2001. When Glenn isn't teaching, directing, coaching or singing lead in his quartet "Four Blokes Singin'" he loves to run, cycle, and walk in the hills whilst traveling around Europe in an aging VW campervan.
