ACCOMPANIST required to join NEWQUAY MALE VOICE CHOIR's MUSICAL TEAM
As a choir, we are always looking for new people to join either this musical team or join as choristers. Having recently been awarded the Federation “President’s Plate” for work in the community (an award given to the Cornish choir which has done most to encourage more youngsters, especially boys, into choral singing) the choir welcomes anyone who enjoys singing. We would be delighted to welcome a third member of the musical team to share, on occasions, the accompanist’s responsibilities at both rehearsals and concerts. For the right candidate(s), this role could include taking or supporting section practices and occasional full rehearsals and concerts. The choir would also be delighted to hear from less experienced candidates who are interested in developing their accompanying or conducting skills. The musical team are supported by an enthusiastic and hard-working committee who are keen to see the choir develop still further in the future.
Choir rehearsals normally take place on Wednesday evenings at Claremont Church Hall in Beachfield Avenue, Newquay between 7pm and 9:30pm from September to July. The choir is developing a popular and innovative repertoire which covers a wide range of styles and genres from classical, operatic, religious, folk, popular and modern as well as songs from the shows. Each year, between 12 and 20 public engagements are accepted with, often, invitations for bookings 2 years in advance. As a result, a great deal of money is raised for and with local charities and community groups.

DEPUTY ACCOMPANIST
for ST BURYAN MALE VOICE CHOIR
Following the retirement of their President and Deputy Accompanist, Diana Jenkins, St Buryan MVC is looking for a replacement Deputy Accompanist to work alongside their highly respected and evergreen Accompanist Norman Bunney. Norman is likely to be absent from the Choir for much of September and October while he has a new knee fitted, so the Choir is keen to find a new deputy as soon as possible.
Under the musical direction of Portia Grant, Great Britain’s most westerly Male Voice Choir is now performing as well as at any time since its formation in 1941, with membership growing and with enthusiasm and friendliness to match. The Deputy Accompanist will play an important and regular role in rehearsals (held every Thursday evening from 7.30 to 9.00 pm in St Buryan Village Hall), and in supporting and substituting Norman at concerts and other engagements. Whilst there is the potential for flexibility to suit the successful applicant, this is seen as a long term appointment with the potential for growth and development.
Anyone interested in this post (perhaps combined with singing in the Choir) is invited in the first instance to call Secretary Brett Farmer on 01736 811263.
