Why Join Us?
Each season, rehearsals begin in late August or in late January, and will be at the First Presbyterian Church in Monterey. We rehearse weekly on Wednesday evenings from 6:15-9:30 p.m. with additional rehearsals scheduled throughout the season.
Singers each pay $175.00 bi-annually, and also pay an additional amount to cover the cost of purchasing and/or printing scores (varies each season). Financial aid is available, if needed. We want everyone to be able to sing!
At this point in time, we are not mandating COVID testing or vaccinations (although we encourage all singers to stay current with vaccinations). We will carefully observe CDC guidelines and make adjustments if necessary. If you prefer to wear a mask during rehearsals, you may do so.
