Terms
The Fall term starts in September and the Spring term starts in January of each year. We perform a Christmas concert at St. Georges United Church, usually two shows and one Spring show in May usually at the Sid Williams Theatre. We also have a one day workshop per term and occasionally perform in local festivals or for benefit concerts.
*NOTE - DUE TO COVID 19 WE WILL NOT PERFORM A FORMAL CONCERT.
Voice Placement
All new members will meet with the musical director for a group session to determine voice placement after the first rehearsal of each term. This is very brief and is to determine which section of the choir is best for your voice range.
Attendance
Please be present and on time for all rehearsals, sectionals, and performances. If you need to miss an occasional rehearsal please inform your section leader. Please discuss plans for extended absences with section leader or musical director. To perform in concerts you must not miss more than three rehearsals per term.
Commitment
To prepare for performances, we ask our members to attend regularly scheduled sectional rehearsals and to practice, at home. To assist learning there are practice tracks, audio-video song samples and weekly rehearsal plans available on the website.
Registration - *NOTE* Due to COVID 19 regulations we can only offer ZOOM singing this term.
All returning and new members must register through the website prior to the first rehearsal of the start of term. Early registration will help us prepare more efficiently for the term. You will receive a web password at the first rehearsal which will give you access to the members only area of this website where you will find more helpful tools and information.
To register GO TO THE ALL SINGERS-2021 TAB in the JOIN tab drop down menu and complete the form.
