If you would like to join Blackdown Acapella...
Becoming a member of our chorus is a straight forward process.
We firstly invite you to attend one of our chorus rehearsal evenings so that you can get a feel for who we are and how we sing. Depending on your skills and vocal range, you will be placed and welcomed into one of our four sections- Bass, Baritone, Lead or Tenor.
After this we then register you as a Limited Member on our website. This gives you access to the audition material and information needed to make a start on your audition process. You will continue to attend weekly whilst you learn your audition song.
For your audition we ask that you learn a song in your part, and perform it within 4 weeks with a quartet from the chorus and the support of your section leader. This is then listened to by the Director and management team to decide if you are right for Blackdown Acapella.
Once the Director and management team agree that you would be a great addition to the chorus, you become a member!
You are then issued with full Member Access to our website.
This audition process has two aims. Firstly to check that this form of singing is what you want to do and secondly for the management team to confirm that you have the ability, drive and enthusiasm to join this progressive competitive chorus.
The rewards of becoming a member are many. We have a vast range of resources and learning materials, teacher tracks, sheet music, warm up exercises, tags and techniques to improve your singing; all at your fingertips on our website with full member access.
To make a start on your singing journey please contact Zelda on 07864 848442 to arrange a suitable evening to visit with us.
Good luck!!
