Ambitious Loughborough chamber choir, with growing reputation, urgently seeks an additional tenor

Viva La Musica is a Loughborough-based mixed choir and numbers 18 singers. Our current Music Director, Simon Lumby, is extracting increasingly exciting performances from the group, performances that are gaining many plaudits across the East Midlands and beyond. Viva’s repertoire, much of which is a capella, extends from the Renaissance to the present day and encompasses both sacred and secular music. We generally rehearse on the second and fourth Monday evenings of each month and sing three concerts annually. We also occasionally sing cathedral services, including a very successful week-end in residence at Worcester Cathedral in 2016 (to considerable acclaim) and the most recent, February 2018, at Southwell.  Please have a look at our website http://www.vivalamusica.org.uk/ and our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/vivalamusicachoir/. With a member recently moving away, we have found ourselves in urgent need of a replacement tenor, preferably with a genuine tenor voice.   Applicants should have reasonable sight-reading skills, voices with good tone that blend easily and a keen ear for tuning. We invite singers who are interested in Viva to join us for three rehearsals and then ask them to audition by singing a piece of their choice to the Music Director and committee members. If you are interested in joining Viva contact us by e-mail via the contact form on our website or, for a chat about joining Viva, contact John on 0779 568 5056. We look forward to hearing from you!
