Thinking of Joining the Choir?
Here's What to Do:
First, you're welcome to come to a rehearsal or two to make sure we're
the Choir for You.
Telephone (01389) 841387 and we'll give you the date and time of the
next convenient rehearsal. We'll arrange for you to be met at our
rehearsal venue and shown the ropes. We're a very friendly lot so you?ll
find it easy to fit in.
Our entry requirement is that you can sing a scale and a line of music
in tune. If you can read music that will he an advantage and if not you
will learn how to do that through practise during rehearsal.
Conductor
At the end of the first rehearsal we'll introduce you to our Conductor,
Marjory Burns, who will ask you to take a brief voice check. This will
enable her to ask you to sing in the most suitable section of the Choir
for your voice.
Rehearsals
We rehearse once a week on Tuesday evenings from late August to December
and from January to mid May each year. If you decide to join we ask you
to attend all the rehearsals you possibly can. There are of course
occasions when this will not be possible and we understand that. The
'Choir' is all of us and we can only sing as the 'Choir' if we?re all
there.
Practise Tapes
A few weeks after the start of rehearsals for a new programme we produce
audiotapes of the musical lines of each section of the Choir. These have
proved to be very helpful in rehearsing the music.
So There It Is
Give us a phone on (01389) 841387. We'll be pleased to hear from you.
