Musical Director

The Lincoln Chorale is an auditioned amateur chamber choir of around 40 voices. We are looking for an experienced choral director to rehearse and conduct the group, ideally starting in January 2024. We usually perform 3 concerts a year, one in each academic term with an occasional extra Christmas concert. We rehearse in central Lincoln on Tuesday evenings during the academic term. The choir is run by a committee, but we usually rely on the MD to work in conjunction with the committee for concert repertoire. We like to perform a varied selection of music; recent performances have included the Rachmaninov Vespers, Handel Coronation Anthems, Bach Motets and Dove’s “The passing of the year” with David Owen Norris. Concerts are usually in churches and venues in and around Lincoln, often with organ accompaniment, but occasionally with orchestral groups.

The position is remunerated, both for rehearsals and concerts. If you are interested and would like further information, please take a look at our website www.lincoln-chorale.org and contact us at admin@lincoln-chorale.org. Applications should be sent to admin@lincoln-chorale.org, including a CV. Note that the successful applicant would be required to provide relevant references and to undergo a DBS check in accordance with Making Music guidance. The closing date for this opportunity is 31st October 2023.
