Songster Leader Karen Smith
Founded at the turn of the century, the Reading Central Songster Brigade is in its 113th year of continuous service. Throughout that time the brigade has maintained excellent numbers and has travelled to many Army centres in the United Kingdom in addition to visiting churches and other groups in its own area.
In recent years the brigade has campaigned in Edinburgh, Belfast, Ashford, Sheffield and Norwich, among others.
The songsters presently number 28 voices, and a wide variety of backgrounds and occupations are reflected in the personnel, including teachers, students, company directors and financial consultants.
Karen Smith has been leader of the brigade since January 2008, previously holding the position of Songster Pianist since 1995.
