Last night we rehearsed in our venue for Saturday’s Masters of Pop gig as part of Camberwell Arts Festival – the beautiful St Giles Church in Camberwell. For those of Pop-Up who missed our gig there last summer, it was their first time back since singing at Tom and Jordana’s wedding, two of our membersContinue reading “Masters of Pop: Meet Camberwell Community Choir”

Masters of Pop: Meet Chaps Choir
It’s all we can do not to fast forward time until next Saturday, but given that our powers don’t extend that far yet, we thought it would be good to introduce you to the acts performing at our Masters of Pop birthday gig.
Join Pop-Up Choir in their own pub for England V Italy!
There have been some wobbly lips among the Pop-Up roster over our MASTERS OF POP birthday extravaganza gig on Saturday June 14. Will we miss England V Italy? WILL WE?

What do you do when you think it’s all gone wrong?
A blog from your trust web moderator, Kat from the Alto 2s. That’s me in the back row to the left of the mics! Yes, I really am that tall.
Gig Report: We sang at the Royal Festival Hall. That is all.
After last week’s post from the stalls, here’s Charlie (Alto 2s) on what it was like performing at the epic Pipes V Mics. The trouble with most mornings is that they’re in the morning. I confess I’m not a morning person, it takes a lot of caffeine to get me up to speed. So itContinue reading “Gig Report: We sang at the Royal Festival Hall. That is all.”
Gig Report: Pipes V Mics – the view from the stalls
With an early start,short notice and Mothering Sunday to boot, not everyone who wanted to could take part in Sunday’s Pipes V Mics concert, in which Pop-Up joined Shlomo in his Rumble piece for voices and organ. So some Poppers got to see the choir from a different angle – the audience! Here’s Emily Falconer (sops)Continue reading “Gig Report: Pipes V Mics – the view from the stalls”
Pipes vs Mics! A Pop-Up Rumble with Shlomo
Um, so Pop-Up had a pretty sweet weekend because a bunch of us sang with Shlomo again! As part of his massive Pipes vs Mics show at the Southbank Centre, he composed a piece for the Royal Festival Hall organ called Rumble.

Newbie blog! An Unseasoned Popper
Following on from Andrew’s piece, we decided to get view from a relative newcomer. Someone who hasn’t yet been completely sucked in to the choir, or Boozy Tuesday. (Andrew’s been in Pop-Up since 2010 and is now thoroughly brainwashed by beer and reindeer songs.) Annabel, pictured with Pop-Up at our wedding gig this weekend, holdingContinue reading “Newbie blog!

Andrew’s Top 5 Things About Pop-Up
Today we’ve got a post from Andrew, one of Our Men. That’s basically the catch-all term for our tenors, basses and baritones, as the Alto 2s sing what’s classically a tenor part. Take it away Andrew! A new year and a time for reflection, so what’s good about being in the Pop-Up Choir in 2014Continue reading “Andrew’s Top 5 Things About Pop-Up”
