| If you are male, enjoy singing and good
company, we would urge you to consider becoming a member of
the choir. You do not have to be a Pavarotti, or even need to
be able to read music. All that is needed is the ability to
sing in tune, enthusiasm and a willingness to learn.
If you decide to give it a go (and you can
do so without any initial commitment) you will receive a
warm welcome, and also you will get plenty of support. Our
conductor will supply you with all manner of tapes (or even
computer disks) to learn from and you will be assigned a
designated member of the choir to give advice and help when
needed. Though some choir members do read music, many don't,
and that doesn't matter as all pieces are learnt note by
note. Rehearsals are held every Monday evening at 7.30 at
Steeton Methodist Chapel Schoolroom and last for two hours.

We are pleased to report that the choir's
membership is currently in a healthy state, but in order for
the situation to continue, we do need a constant supply of
new members so it is in our interest to look after anyone
interested in joining!
What you will gain from joining apart from
new friends and new skills which you probably didn't know
you had, is actually quite hard to explain to someone who
has never sung in a large choir. What we can say is that to
be one of 60 odd voices singing, for example, one of the great
Welsh hymns at full throttle is one of the great experiences
not just in music but in life. Not for nothing do you keep
hearing of the "hairs on the back of the neck" factor
in Male Voice Choir circles.
If you feel you would like to give it a try,
contact our Recruitment Officer, Ken Wardell (01943 817432)
, or even speak to any choir member after a concert. Indeed,
there is an open ivitation to anyone to come along to our
Monday evening rehearsal. You can be assured of a warm welcome.
We also have an open evening each year which Ken can tell
you about.
If you wish to support us in other ways,
you might wish to consider becoming a patron of the choir.
Contact the Secretary for details.
