Rehearsals

Rehearsals are scheduled each Tuesday evening from 7 to 9:30 P.M., September through May. The chorale usually sings three concerts per season. Members are expected to attend all rehearsals or notify the director if they must miss.
Those missing more than two rehearsals during a concert cycle may be asked to demonstrate a proficiency of the performance music prior to the final dress rehearsal. Those who do not know the repertoire are not permitted to sing that concert program.
Members are asked to learn notes outside of rehearsals. In addition to Tuesday rehearsals, there may be extra part rehearsals scheduled.
Dress rehearsals are mandatory and are scheduled according to the availability of venue. Schedule conflicts are worked out on an individual basis. Unforeseen conflicts must be reported as soon as possible.

Membership Fees and Expectations

Each member pays a membership fee which helps to pay the expenses of rehearsal and performance venues, rehearsal accompanist, and artistic director. In addition, we continue to seek support through grants, business ads and Guild memberships.
All members are encouraged to sell six (6) tickets per concert.
All members are encouraged to communicate quickly if they are ill and to avoid exposing other singers to illness.

Concert Attire

Members must provide their own concert attire.
Men’s apparel is black tuxedo, black tie and cummerbund, black shoes/socks, black studs/cufflinks, and white wing collar shirts with no ruffles or colored trim.
Women’s apparel includes a black jacket over a black floor length gown or pants, black shoes with a closed toe and heel and stud-type earrings. More about the requirements
