Hi singers!
We're so excited to get back to singing and can't wait to see both familiar faces and new ones as we kick off our fall season!
Here's everything you need to know to get started.
Our first rehearsal is Monday, September 8, at the Saint Joseph Church Hall (92 Queen Street, Bridgewater).
We are thrilled to welcome back our talented Artistic Director, Amelia McMahon, and our wonderful accompanist, Sharon Gow-Knickle.
The South Shore Chorale is a non-auditioned choir, and we welcome anyone who loves to sing (and can sing in tune!). We have a limited number of spots, with priority given to returning members, so please let us know your intentions as soon as possible.
We especially need more basses! If you are a bass or know someone who is, please let them know we have a spot for them.
Rehearsals: We rehearse every Monday from 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm at St. Joseph Church Hall, with the exception of Thanksgiving Day.
Choir Retreat: For the first time, we'll have a Choir Retreat on Saturday, October 18, at Trinity United in Rose Bay from 10:00 am - 3:30 pm (bring your own lunch).
Concerts: Our Christmas concerts are scheduled for 2pm Saturday, December 6, in Mahone Bay and Sunday, December 7, in Bridgewater.
The fee for the fall season is $125 per person. To encourage new, younger voices, we've waived fees for members under 25 and offer a 50% discount for those aged 25-34. If the fee is a barrier for anyone, please contact our Vice President, Jim Houghton, to discuss a payment plan.
For all members, we offer great resources to help you learn and practice the music, including recordings of rehearsals posted on YouTube.
We'd love to have you! Please email president.southshorechorale@gmail.com with your name, voice part (if known), and contact information to register.
We can't wait to see you there!
