ROCHESTER CATHEDRAL VOLUNTARY CHOIR
There are vacancies in the soprano and bass sections of this mixed adult choir from August 2008 for singers aged 16 and over.
Applicants should be good sight-readers, preferably with previous experience of Anglican church music, and prepared to commit to attending at least 70+% of scheduled choir dates during the year (exceptions to this rule are sometimes negotiable, depending on your personal circumstances; please ask).
Former boy and girl choristers, choral scholars, lay clerks, etc, would be particularly welcome, as well as others wishing to gain more experience of this repertoire.
All successful applicants will be required to obtain CRB clearance before taking up their place in the choir.
The choir maintains a varied schedule of services in the cathedral throughout the year, but there is no commitment to regular weekly rehearsals.
In addition to our duties in the cathedral there are concerts and services elsewhere in the Diocese and beyond, and foreign tours (three each to the USA and Germany already; return visits to both countries are likely in the next two years).
Further auditions will be held early in the last week of August. Please contact us to arrange a date and time.
For more information about the choir, please contact the choir’s Director:
