Isitfair was started in October 2002 by Christine and John Melsom as a local action group in Hampshire. They were incensed about the proposed huge increase in Council Tax bills for the year 2003/04. This was the year when the average increase was 12.9%! Although the Government knew that this was going to happen, they did absolutely nothing to prevent it. Instead, they blamed the local councils!

The musical repertoire of the choir is wide and varied, It includes music for all tastes ranging from operatic choruses, spirituals, hymns, folk music and popular ballads.
