If
you feel that you are up to our standards and would like to try out
for the choir,
please
contact
philchoir@icon.co.za.
Applications
are considered during January of each year, except in the case of
bona fide students, who may apply until the end of February. In
exceptional circumstances, auditions are held at other times of the
year. Membership is open to any singer who pays the prescribed fee,
passes an assessment by the Director of Music or other designated
person, and is accepted by the committee. Membership is always
probationary in the first year, and will be confirmed by acceptance
in the second year of application. The committee reserves the right
to terminate membership at any time, should there be compelling
reasons (musical or otherwise) to do so. Membership applications must
be renewed annually. Members may take a leave of absence for up to
one year without jeopardising their membership, provided they have
notified the Secretary in writing, handed in a membership application
form for that year, and paid any outstanding fees.
Membership
fee
The membership fee
for 2009 is R240
per person (R120 for pensioners and students) and
is payable before the end of February.
Membership fees may be reduced or waived in deserving cases on
written application. Only paid-up members may participate in a
performance.
Auditions
Auditions
are held once a year – in January and/or February, with exceptional
auditions held occasionally at other times of the year.
Rehearsals
Rehearsals
are usually held each Monday at St Thomas's Church Hall, Rondebosch
from 19:30 – 22:00.
Members are expected
to arrive in good time to secure a place, and be ready to commence
promptly.
