The Island Voices Chamber Choir hopes to add two voices.
The choir is comprised of 24 singers from the Comox Valley, Campbell River, and Quadra Island.
Since its creation in 1997, the choir has been has been committed to “singing excellent music excellently,” and has been building a loyal following in its home communities.
Milestones in the choir’s growth have been participation in the 1998 BC Chorfest as a “core” choir, second-place finishes in the Chamber Choir category in the international choral festival Kathaumixw in 2000 and 2008, and the release in 2005 of the Island Voices’ second CD.
Island Voices typically performs two major concerts each year as well as appearing in community and charity events.
Rehearsals are weekly, on Wednesday evenings, from September through to April in centrally situated Black Creek.
“We work hard at our music, but have plenty of fun in the process,” the group says.
There are openings for two tenors. If you are keen to sing challenging music as part of a warm friendly team, aged 19 to 55(ish), able to read music and sing in an a-cappella setting, contact the choir director Jo-Anne Preston to arrange an audition.
Phone 250-337-5730, 250-202-4300 or e-mail joanne.preston@shaw.ca.
