Sheffield Bach Choir is going ahead with its AGM next week – on Zoom.

The choir, like all groups across England, are unable to meet because of the coronavirus pandemic.

“Members will join us online using Zoom” said Chair Chris Walker, “The AGM will be the same as in previous years, but on-line rather than live. Unfortunately that means there won’t be any tea and biscuits!”

A key element of the AGM will be the approval of the Sheffield Bach Society financial accounts and annual reports.

“Like many choirs, we subsidise many of our concerts, as ticket sales rarely cover all the costs” explained choir treasurer Kitty Ross, “So funnily enough, having to abandon concerts has meant we have benefitted a bit financially. Though I’m sure choir members would choose singing over funds!”

The AGM is on Monday 16th November at 7.30pm and is likely to last about 40 minutes.
