Christmas preparations do feel a long way off, but we start our recruitment for choir and orchestra early, as there are a number of practices and we always want to do the best job we can!

So we are looking for people to join the Christmas choir; the ability to read music, and experience of singing in a choir are very helpful, though not essential, but you do have to be able to sing in tune and hold a part.

For the orchestra: wind players need to be at least grade 7 standard and string players at least grade 6 and you will need to have experience of playing in an orchestra. There are only 2 rehearsals, but you get the music to practise beforehand.

Rehearsals will start 16th Oct for choir; we rehearse every week leading up to the candlelight services on 9th & 10th Dec.

Please contact Hazel at woodieschoir@gmail.com for more information. Registration is essential (by 27th Sept for the choir and 16th Oct for orchestra).
