Pandora Mixed Choir
Tuesdays 19.00 - 21.00
Experience the power singing in a group with the Pandora Mixed Choir!
Music brings energy, emotion, and connection like no other. We are a group of 22 amateur singers from around the world. Whether you’re new or experienced, our inclusive choir welcomes everyone to join and celebrate the joy of singing together.
Pandora Choir was born in November 2021. Our conductor is the Italian classical singer Elisa De Toffol. During the rehearsals she is sharing her talent and knowledge with us, guiding the choir on voice technique, music phrasing, different styles and the essential art of singing together.
We hold two major concerts each year—one in June and one in December. For this reason, new members can join only in January or September.
Commitment is key! Regular attendance ensures you feel confident on stage and can fully enjoy the experience.

Frequent questions…
Is it necessary to have choral experience? Choral experience is not required! Some singers have a degree in music and for others this is their first musical experience :)
What happens if I miss a rehearsal? Nothing, as long as it is not too often! You will have all the necessary materials to practice at home if you missed a session. Keep in mind that it is mandatory to attend at least 70% of the rehearsals in order to participate in the concert.
Do I need to know how to read music? We work with music scores but not everyone can properly read. You will learn along the journey. We also have a google drive where the conductor will share the audio files of the most complex pieces.
I don’t know which type of voice I have. No worries! Elisa will guide you and make sure that you are in the right section :)
Which kind of pieces do you sing? Our repertoire blends original arrangements of pop and soul classics—such as Isn’t She Lovely, Heal the World, Life on Mars, Imagine, Africa, and Can You Feel the Love Tonight—with traditional folk songs from around the world, each deeply rooted in its cultural heritage, including Bella Ciao, Baba Yetu, Telema Ngwi, Tongo, Amavolovolo, La Cucaracha, and Siyahamba. We also include classical to contemporary works and film music, featuring composers such as Holst, Castelnuovo-Tedesco, and Morricone.
In which language are the rehearsals? We rehearse in English.
Where do you rehearse? Our rehearsals are in Pandora Studio (De Constant Rebecquestraat 3, The Hague).
Share your talent with friends and family
Every year we organize two concerts—one at Christmas and another in the summer. These events are a wonderful opportunity to share our passion with friends, family, and anyone curious to discover our music. After each performance, we host a cheerful lunch, a great moment to meet new people while enjoying good food and drinks!
Who we are
We are not a professional choir—just a dedicated group of amateurs who love singing, growing in music and doing our best together. Our members come from many countries and age groups. We’ve created a warm, welcoming, and safe space where everyone feels at home.
It’s a place to learn about yourself, develop your voice, and build meaningful friendships. Most importantly, we have fun and share beautiful moments together!
