Welcome to week 8!

Rehearsals in all the usual places. In-person 6.30-8.30pm; online 7-9pm (links for Tuesday's online rehearsal and Wednesday's streamed one will be sent out nearer the time).

This week we'll be finishing off "O Holy Night", looking at another section of "Festival of Carols" and starting off TWO new ones - "Let It Go" and the slightly revamped "Pop Christmas Medley". Please, LISTEN TO THE RECORDINGS FIRST - it will really help.

As ever, please come prepared with your own music in whatever form you like it - printed, phone, iPad... We're no longer giving out sheet music, but if you forget there will be a QR code to this week's music on the reception desk. And it would also help if you have a listen to the recordings if they're available.

Covid care

All our venues have hand sanitiser and we'll keep them as well ventilated as we can. You're very welcome to wear a mask or not as you wish. Please be kind and respect other people's decisions. As ever, please do not attend if you're feeling ill.

Post-rehearsal socialising

wherever you are!

Wherever you are

Tuesdays (online only) at 6.30pm and Wednesdays (streamed from the live rehearsal) also at 6:30pm

If you're signed up to one of our full membership plans - Monthly, Annual or Out-Of-Town - you'll be able to access the registration links for our online rehearsals from the member dashboard.

If you're planning to be a regular online member, it's definitely worth trying out Jamulus, which is what quite a few of our members use alongside Zoom. Basically, if you don't use Jamulus, you have to remain muted while you're singing. If you use Jamulus, the software routes your audio through to a special server which means that you're able to sing in real-time with the other people who are also on there. It's a bit fiddly to get set-up, but we're happy to help you if you're prepared to do some of the work too. You need a wired ethernet connection (not wifi) and wired headphones. Mac users have an easier time of the installation process.
