A reminder that our first rehearsal for the autumn term will be tomorrow Monday 4th September.
Music for Meet the Mendelssohns
Ros will be handing out the remaining music for Meet the Mendelssohns before the rehearsal on Monday. The cost, per person, for the music will be £12. If you were one of the few people who opted to purchase a personal copy of the Hiob score with piano reduction, the cost will be £8. Please bring cash or a cheque, or pay by bank transfer if you prefer.
It would be helpful if you could arrange to arrive a few minutes early so that we can get the music handed out before the rehearsal starts.
Subscriptions
Subscriptions .are now due for 2023/24. The annual subscription is £180 - contact Julian email: membe...@carshaltonchoral.org.uk if you need further information on ways to pay.
