Canberra Choral Society (CCS) invites you to participate in our end of year concert as part of the CCS Come & Sing Chorus.

Our Chorus is open to all singers, including those with no choral experience.

We will direct you to online resources that will help you to learn by ear if you need to. If you have some skills at reading music you’ll have a head start, but it’s not compulsory.

To ensure the highest performance standard, you will be expected to attend all rehearsals, to listen to the resources and to practise at home.

Please check the rehearsal schedule and ensure that you can meet this commitment.
