‘New members are very welcome and we do not require you to have an audition although you will find it an advantage to read music or to be able to follow it to a degree. Come to rehearsals for 2 or 3 weeks to see if you enjoy being in the Choir and there is no obligation for you to stay or pay. If you do decide to continue singing with us then we will ask you to become a member. All voices (we have soprano, contralto, tenor and bass sections) are welcome and we are delighted to have students and young people as members (under 19s do not pay a membership fee). For the sake of harmonious balance we may from time to time restrict the numbers of people joining each section ... We perform a concert at the end of each term and you are encouraged to attend sufficient rehearsals to be concert ready, that is, knowing the music and confident to participate in your section of the Choir.’
