Information for Members

Our Choir rehearses from September  to December (Fall Season) and from January to May (Spring Season).  We practice in the choral room at Malaspina University College in Nanaimo, and rehearsals usually run from 7:00 pm to 9:30 pm on Tuesday nights.  Sectional practices are usually scheduled for one hour immediately preceding regular rehearsals.  Locations are on the Rehearsals page.  We do accept new members in both September and January.  (Members joining in January pay for a half year only.)  Please download the fee schedule (PDF or MS Word).

The first regular rehearsal of the Fall Season will be on  September 4, 2007Registration begins at 6 p.m. for current members. If you are interested in joining us, please do come to this rehearsal around 6:30 and identify yourself to Inge Fleet, the Choir's Registrar. We will be meeting in the Music Building, Room 105.  Bring your filled-in registration form - you can download it here (PDF or MS Word)!  The Music Building is #320, and is located roughly between the art gallery and the cafeteria.  Please refer to the Malaspina campus map.

Please note: all new members will be asked to participate in a brief audition with Wade.  (All returning members should have done this last year; if not, please talk to Wade.)  Wade wants to hear all our voices individually and ensure that all members are placed in the appropriate section.  DO NOT be nervous about this - it will be painless and very very fast, five minutes at the most....

Parking at Malaspina College:  It will cost $2 to park for rehearsals ($0.50/hour or $2.00 for 9 hours).

Please note:  We are a fragrance-free choir: this means no scented hair sprays, no perfumes, no colognes, no scented cream etc.  If you need to use hairspray, unscented varieties are available.  Several members have been concerned about this issue, and we want everyone to be able to breathe and sing their best. The conductor and many choir members have a severe sensitivity to scents. For health reasons, if Wade notices a fragrance, he will ask you to leave the rehearsal.
