| Description: |
Are you looking for a new hobby?
Do you love singing?
Maybe you've tried another choir and want more of a challenge?
We welcome all women of all ages, who want to find out if we are a good fit for them, to come along and take part (at whatever level you are able to) in a rehearsal. Or you can just watch and listen if you prefer. &nsbp;If you cannot make it to a Welcome Wednesday (the first Wednesday of each month), you are also welcome on any other Wednesday for a less structured experience.
We are looking for singers in all the vocal ranges, from deep and rich voices, through to high and light, and medium voices inbetween!
We're a very friendly and supportive bunch, so why not give us a try? Please drop us a line beforehand at visitus_filter_unwanted@capitalconnection.org.uk to let us know you are coming!
What you can expect on the evening:
- A quick chat with the MD about your vocal range and experience, to work out which part you should shadow for the evening
- An easy-to-follow vocal warmup with the chorus to get your voice good and ready for a sing
- Some practice of a song in a "sectional" (your adopted voicepart only) - an ability to read music can be of help but don't worry if you can't. Many of our members are non-music-readers and pick up the part by ear. Just do what you can so you can join in!
- Singing that song together as a full chorus with the other parts and experiencing some glorious harmonies!
- Hear the chorus singing a couple of our established repertoire songs so you can hear/see what we're all about.
- A break with refreshments and an opportunity to talk to chorus members
- In the second half, an opportunity to observe a normal intensive rehearsal on something we're working on.
The time is now... one thing many members say is that they wish they'd found us earlier... It's never too early/late! |
