The Choir
|
St. Oswald's Parish Church Choir is an SATB choir which routinely sings the cathderal and collegiate church repertoire (see our music lists) and operates to the standard that is found in our cathdral and collegiate churches. The Choir comprises 3 sections:-
The adult section comprises altos, tenors and basses. We are always interested in hearing from singers who would like to join us. The top line (Treble) of the Choir is taken by the Junior Choir except for the 1st & 4th Sunday evenings when a small group of adult singers with the Choral Scholars form the soprano line.
Joining the Choir.Adults are admitted to the Choir following an audition when they will be asked to perform a piece of music together with some simple aural tests and sight reading. Prospective singers should be either competent sight readers or be able to learn music quickly after one hearing. It is essential that prospective members should be able to blend well in ensemble singing. |
