Pick-N-Mix

The Chapel Royal on North Street is set to host a new musical production this spring titled Pick-N-Mix, brought to the stage by the local choir Resound Voices. The event is scheduled for two consecutive nights, Friday, May 15th, and Saturday, May 16th, 2026. Both performances are timed for a 19:30 start, offering a look at the group's latest project in the heart of Brighton. The show’s title reflects its structure, as the choir has curated a program based on their own favorite songs rather than following a single narrative or historical theme. It is essentially a collection that combines various musical influences, described by the organizers as a mix of "a little of this and a dash of that."

What makes the program interesting is the breadth of the material Resound Voices typically handles. As a choir of lower voices based in Brighton and Hove, they are known for a repertoire that doesn't stay in one lane for long. Under the musical direction of Sam Barton, the group performs everything from contemporary television themes to traditional choral pieces from the 16th century. This fluidity is the core of the Pick-N-Mix concept, allowing the singers to transition between very different styles within the same set. For those who follow the local choral scene, it’s a chance to see how these diverse elements are balanced in a live setting without the constraints of a more rigid concert format.

In terms of the practical side of things, the venue is located at Chapel Royal, North Street (BN1 1EA), which is a familiar spot for anyone who spends time in the city center. Tickets for the performances are available through the TicketSource platform, with a standard entry price of £18.00. It is worth noting that this price is provided as a guide and may be subject to some variation. Since the show is being held on both a Friday and a Saturday evening, there are two opportunities to catch the performance at 19:30. The combination of a historic chapel setting with a repertoire that spans several centuries provides a clear picture of the choir's current artistic direction and their contribution to the local cultural landscape.
