Our rehearsals usual start with a quick and fun warm up before moving on to a variety of pieces in 4-part harmony. These could be jazz/swing, musical theatre, or from a wide range of contemporary or classical genres. We do not set out to do the big oratorio works; many other choirs already do these well. Our repertoire could be taken from anywhere else, as long as we enjoy singing it. Members are involved in the selection of music to ensure we all enjoy rehearsing and performing.
We have singers with varying levels of experience, from absolute novice to professional. Sight reading, though useful, is not essential as we will “note bash” as required to help everyone learn their parts. If you are not a brilliant sight reader, it is also useful to look at music between rehearsals to help get the notes in your head and we are currently working on uploading audio files for individual parts to support learning.
Usual rehearsals dates: Monday evenings, 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm; with seasonal breaks detailed below:
