Mount Kelly Choral Society News
The Mount Kelly Choral Society (charity no. 1172838) in Tavistock will be starting the new term on Thursday September 7th. This mixed choir always welcomes newcomers and sings a wide variety of choral works, performing two or three concerts a year. Although aspiring to high standards, anyone who wishes to develop their singing abilities is welcome. Auditions are usually only required if the section for the voice concerned is oversubscribed. The choir is very friendly, reasonably serious but NOT SOLEMN! You can to attend up to six rehearsals on a trial basis, without obligation.
Rehearsals are on Thursday evenings from 7.30 to 9.30 in the Melvin Hall at Mount Kelly College and the first one of the new term will be on Thursday, September 7thth when work will start on Handel’s Ode on St. Cecelia’s Day and Rutter’s Magnificat for the concert on Saturday, 18th November in St. Eustachius’ Church, Tavistock. After Christmas, we will be rehearsing Mozart’s Great Mass in C Minor for a concert on March 17th also in St. Eustachius’ Church. Annual subscriptions are £50 full subscription, £40 concessionary and £25 for under 30s. Membership is free to anyone under 18.
Mount Kelly College is on the left of the A386 heading out of Tavistock towards Okehampton. Ample parking is available. Enter through the main door and ask for the Melvin Hall.
