Practice Timetable
For membership enquiries, please contact us for details or please feel free to attend one of our rehearsals in Our Ladys National School Hall, Ballinteer.
_______________________________________________
The choir rehearses most Thursdays between September and May in the library of Our Lady’s Boys National School, Ballinteer, Dublin 16. Rehearsals are from 8pm to 10pm.
The choir is always interested in recruiting new members and we are particularly interested in recruiting first tenors and baritones.
We’d be delighted if you were able to come along for a few rehearsals. It’s the best way to get to know us, and see if we are for you, and vice versa. Feel free to drop by unannounced, or send us an email in advance, if you prefer. If you have a reasonable voice, and enjoy singing, then why not try us out. You don’t need to be able to read music or have previous choral experience to sing with us. You can have an informal audition / chat with our musical director so he can see where you might fit in. We look forward to seeing you.
