Chamber Choir

Level: No previous choral/classical singing experience necessary, but an ability to read music is desirable.

What is the Chamber Choir course?
This is a course for those that want to sing in a small chamber choir - but not necessarily standard, mainstream repertoire. However, a willingness to learn and improve is of vital importance, but above all it is about the enjoyment of performing in a musical group.

We will look at part songs, motets, madrigals, canzonas - the smaller choral works building up a repertoire ready for a short performance at the end of the course.

Teaching and Learning
The course will be practical and will follow the format of a rehearsal. There will be plenty of opportunity to learn and improve your music reading skills.

Assessment details
There are no assessments with this course, although should good progress be made the group might consider being entered for one of the Associated Board's Ensemble exams.

Progression

To join other choirs and choral societies, including summer choral courses.

Notes

Extra costs : Possibly buying own copies of the music to be rehearsed.
