Singing with us

Membership is open to all proficient choral singers. We require a commitment to consistent practice and excellent performance. In return, we guarantee challenging, rewarding musical and educational opportunities with supportive, welcoming, and fun-loving friends and colleagues.

Rehearsals

Rehearsals are held Wednesdays, 7-9:30 pm at Lakeside Presbyterian Church 201 Eucalyptus Drive, San Francisco, Corner of Eucalyptus and 19th Ave. by Stonestown Mall).  We have three concert cycles in a season with rehearsals for each starting the first Wednesday in September, January, and April.

Vocal Interview

Interviews are held in September, January, and April at the beginning of each concert cycle. They are conduct by our Music Director Larry Marietta and consist of tests for vocal range and ability to hear and repeat musical intervals. Singers are also asked to sing My Country 'Tis of Thee in a key of their choice.  No prepared pieces are required.  

We encourage interested singers to join us for our rehearsals, singing along with us, before the interview to get a feel for the group.  Please come a few minutes early to fill out a new member form and pickup music.  We usually set up a table to the left as you come in the main entrance of the church.  Some will be at the table to assist you and answer an questions. Interviews are held immediately following rehearsals around 9:30pm.
