NEW MEMBERS NIGHT

Sally from Halswell

Canterbury Singers have a New Members night on Tuesday 16th July.
We're especially looking for LOW VOICES! Women with low voices to sing Alto or Men's tenor, and Men to sing Tenor Baritone or Bass!
So, if you are tired of straining to sing high melody parts or even Alto is too high for you, come and join us! We're a choir with a proud tradition of over 50 years entertaining audiences, but now after Covid and a number of retirements, we're looking for vibrant people to swell the ranks and magnify our sound!
So..... if you love to sing, can sing in tune, and hold a part, we want your voice! Come and join us as we start our new repertoire for our December Concert.
If you haven't sung in a choir for years, want a change from singing Acapella or other forms of music, come and be part of the joyful sould of a full choir accompanied by our talented pianist - Jean, and directed by our talented young Conductor Henry Nicholson,
Date: 16th July Arrive 7:15pm
Place: Chapel St Centre, Corner of Chapel St and Harewood Road Papanui
