You are very welcome to attend as many rehearsals as you wish before deciding whether to apply. When you visit, you can join in with warm-ups and any repertoire we’re working on — or just sit and listen if you prefer.
No need to book: simply turn up. If you’d like us to expect you, email coordinator@halifaxchoral.org.
Do I Need to Read Music?
We sing in four-part harmony (soprano, alto, tenor, bass), so some familiarity with written music is helpful. But if your experience is limited or rusty, please don’t worry — you certainly won’t be alone! Many members build confidence quickly with support from their section and fellow singers.
There is no audition, but new members are required to undergo an informal voice check full of useful hints and tips to help you get the most out of singing in the choir.
