The choir rehearses on Wednesday evenings in term time, in the Music Room in St John's School, Grange Road, Cambridge, preparing for each pair of concerts. We ask members to commit to singing in both venues for each concert to ensure consistency of sound and interpretation.
Membership is by audition every three years. This involves preparing a short self-selected piece to sing, and an exploration of scales, tone and aural ability. A good level of sight-reading is required so rehearsals can focus on sound and interpretation. Members pay a subscription of £175 a year, with a reduced subscription of £40 for students and the low-waged or unwaged. The fees may be paid termly. |
Music making is a huge part of choir, but friendships have also been an important part of NCS to me and I feel I have made many friends over the years. |
We currently have some vacancies at present!
