About the Chorus We are a SATB Festival Chorus. We usually begin rehearsing in January and disband after our March festival; we exist to present choral music at the festival. This is a volunteer chorus with paid section leaders. We rehearse mostly in small sections and individually. We sometimes present readings of works when performance levels cannot be achieved with the belief that the process of sharing and learning music has great value. We sing in many languages and styles and have great fun! Our recordings capture history, help composers, and make the music available for study. Not all chorus members will sing in every choral piece presented throughout the festival. Chorus members enjoy the flexibility of singing on a piece-by-piece basis, according to their availability for attending each concert and according to their general availability for rehearsals, their comfort level with the music, their personal interests, and their reading ability. One may opt to sing in only one piece and still be considered a valuable member of the chorus; we welcome whatever level of participation you can offer. High level and devoted singers may wish to audition for the Concert Pro Femina Chorus, which offers a second outlet for choral participation within the festival. Raise your voice and join us in our mission to discover and spread women's music! Contact Festival Director Daniel Morel for more info... |
