Press Release
Celebration Singers Community Choirs
Celebration Singers Community Choirs are non-auditioned adult community choirs offering three choirs to join. We are excited to be continuing its 25th season in September. Under the direction of Jenn Forsland, these choirs have gained a reputation for singing beautifully blended harmonies and performing a diverse selection of sacred and secular pieces. While continually striving to improve technique, Celebration Singers repertoire is based in spiritual and gospel music, and each rehearsal is a joyful blend of many genres and styles. We offer a mixed voice SATB CELEBRATION SINGERS choir (men and women), an SSAA women's ensemble, GRACE NOTES and our newest addition a TTBB men's chorus, MEN OF NOTES (directed by Carol Anne Parkinson).
Celebration Singers Community Choirs are looking for more members who sing tenor or bass in order to achieve a better balance. The ability to read music is an asset, and a good ear is a must. The choir invites all new and previous members to the first practice of the season on Monday, Sept. 9th at 5:45pm (SSAA) 7:15 p.m (SATB), Isfeld Secondary School on Lerwick Road. All new members will have a 'voice check' by director Forsland to determine their section suitability. Arrive 30 minutes early on the first night in order to confirm registration, pay dues and collect music. The TTBB men's chorus will start on Monday, Oct. 21st at 5:45pm in the Isfeld band room.
Under the ever playful accompaniment of Sean Mooney, and Jenn Forsland's nurturing perfectionism, Celebration Singers Community Choirs are looking forward to another year of great music. Three concerts a year, two at Christmas and a spring finale, allow the choir to share its music with friends and family and perform, often with other musicians and singers.
If interested in joining, please come to the first rehearsal in September and try us out for two weeks. For more information visit our website at www.celebrationsingers.ca or contact Kelly Finlayson at 250 338-8971. Check back for exact dates.
