Singers wanted for Church choir starting soon

From Simon Young;

I've spoken to most of you about getting together to see what we can do with a gospel/worship choir.

Ideally it will consist of four-part harmony (soprano, alto, tenor, bass), with a small backing band probably consisting of piano, organ/synth, bass, drums and maybe lead guitar, but with the emphasis on worship through the singing. There will probably be a (different) lead singer for each song as well as the choir.

I'd like to have an evening to explain a bit more what the idea is, arrange time for practising, listen to some music and maybe even to sing one or two chords!

If you'd like to join in, can you contact me asap with evening days which are good for you. Also dates you can't make in the next month or so. If it works we'll aim to have a practice/worship time once a week or once a fortnight. Please could you also let me know if you haven't the time.

Please pass this message on to others you think would like to sing. The key things are 1) a passion for worship and 2) I would like the singers to be able to hold a part in a four-part choir and to sing in tune, although if you haven't done choir singing before it doesn't matter - we'll have a go at teaching. But it will be different from the normal bands in that we'll spend much more time learning the parts, with printed music.

Thanks!

Simon
