Rehearsals and Events
News
Rehearsals (see schedule below)
Rehearsals are held on Monday each week between 7.30pm and 9.30pm in St. John’s School, Ely.
We aim to be a sociable choir! Some of our members meet informally after practice each week to share a drink at the nearby West End House pub. Everyone from the Society is welcome to join that group as and when they can.
We rehearse on the morning or afternoon on the day of each concert, again listed on the rehearsal schedule. Attendance on the day of the concert rehearsal with the orchestra is obligatory.
To ensure the highest quality of performance members should try to attend all rehearsals. For unavoidable absences you should inform a member of the committee of your absence. Members who have not attended sufficient rehearsals will not be permitted to sing in the concerts; anyone with any concerns over their ability to sing a specific concert based on attendance should speak to the conductor Andrew Parnell.
