The choir’s substantial repertoire is wide ranging from the 60s up to current day and includes: musical theatre, classical rock, love ballads, power ballads, indie rock, soul, country, disco, folk, soft rock and progressive symphonic rock to name but a few.
Essential requirements will be:
• Extensive experience of leading rehearsals, teaching vocal techniques would be a bonus and promoting a high standard of performance
• The ability to engage with and encourage all choir members to develop their singing skills in a healthy
and sustainable way
• Ability to produce vocal guides where required to support the choir
