We always welcome new members. There is no audition to join the choir but you do need a reasonable voice and a desire to sing to as high a standard as possible. Some knowledge of reading music is highly desirable. If you can't read music you may struggle to learn the pieces. However, there are plenty of websites and books which teach the basics of reading music and there will always be someone to help, so all is not lost if you find it difficult at first.
If a new member is hoping to sing in a particular concert, he or she should try to join at the beginning of the rehearsal period for that concert. Rehearsals for our next concert will start on 16th September 2025 and the concert is on Saturday 29th November 2025.
Usually we suggest that prospective new members come to a couple of rehearsals to see how they get on before committing themselves. If you do join there is a subscription of £140 per annum payable in two instalments.
If you are interested in joining and would like more details either email info@chewvalleychoral.org.uk or telephone 07814098457.
If you are not sure whether this is for you we will be holding a FREE Taster Session on 23rd Sptember 2025.
