Musical Director required
Rainham Ladies is seeking a new Conductor/Musical Director to help take our well-established and enthusiastic choir forward. The choir was formed over 60 years ago by a wonderful woman called Joan Bigwood. We currently have 24 members, but are always on the lookout for more! We enjoy singing across a wide range of musical genres, generally in 3-part harmony. Our current repertoire is drawn from sacred songs, madrigals, traditional songs, classical pieces, songs from shows and more modern popular songs but we are open to trying new and different pieces.
We usually perform at least two concerts per year (Spring and Christmas). Each Spring, for several years now, we have presented a concert organised by the Friends of Cobham Hall Heritage Trust at that wonderful venue. For the past two years, we’ve been invited to present a Christmas Concert at St Nicolas’s Church, Otham. We also sing at other events as they arise such as a regular, fun booking to sing some Christmas songs and carols at the Gillingham Golf Club Christmas lunch each year. We rehearse with a pianist every Monday evening (7.30 – 9.00pm) in Rainham, apart from Bank Holidays and a break during the Summer. If you, or anyone else you might know, would be interested in working with an enthusiastic choir that loves producing music to a high standard, and wants to grow and develop in the future, please get in touch.We would look to meet and interview suitable applicants; any appointment would be on a trial basis for the first term. Fees subject to discussion and agreement. Closing date for applicants is 29th February 2024
