Fundraising: Program Advertising

One of our primary sources of annual fundraising is through the sale of advertisements in our season program. This season program is used for performances throughout the season and is a great way to create mutual support for both Madrigal Chorale and the businesses that choose to support us. 

Please see the attached documents which include the cover letter, benefits page, and worksheet/commitment form. Some pre-printed copies and sample programs may be made available at rehearsal upon request. Our due date will be Friday, November 14th.

Please make an effort to reach out to possible advertisers and sell as many ads as possible. Successful fundraising campaigns are vital to allowing us the freedom to pursue fun ideas and opportunities.

Open Rehearsals

Please continue to bring new singers to sit in and join us! We welcome singers of all voice parts! We will welcome new singers all season long.

Google Classroom

We will once again be using Google Classroom to share practice recordings to aid in your practice outside of rehearsal. You can join via direct invite or via link. It can be found here: https://classroom.google.com/c/ODAyOTk5ODM0OTU2?cjc=pelmdybu

If needed, the Class Code is pelmdybu

This is a new link!

Note from Margee: I have set up an entire section for all of the Requiem materials. More to come! There are ZipFiles for each voice part. (Note: Some people may need instructions on opening a ZipFile! - See attached!) 

Materials are set up as follows:

• Requiem - All Materials 
• Each Voice Part : Alto, Bass, Tenor and Soprano
• Solos & Small Groups 
• Sample Recordings and Videos
• Accompaniment, Balanced Voices and Muted Parts

There are still a few pieces missing from the library.  Just waiting on Choral Tracks.  In the meantime,  I have posted YouTube videos that should be helpful.  

Note: For those of you that use tablets please note that Steve Thomas (derrosen...@ameritech.net) has generously scanned the music and put them in both .pdf and .4sc formats. If you are interested in this please contact him directly. Thanks Steve!
