No that would never be the case for Phil Dixon, musical director at Chester le Street Civic Choir.

He has really got his feet firmly on the ground and is now ably supported by Julie Lawrence on the piano.

Phil really knows how to motivate this friendly #mixedvoice choir and get the best out of them.

If you would like to come along and join the choir at rehearsal on a Tuesday evening, then why don't you check out the choir website, http://www.chesterlestreetcivicchoir.org.uk.
