Attendance

Singers are required to attend rehearsals. Attendance is taken by the Secretary.
Members may miss 2 rehearsals per concert session, but need to notify the Secretary of any known absences (vacations, health, etc.) or if unable to attend on any given night.
Extenuating circumstances for extended absences should be discussed with the Secretary or Artistic Director.

A $35 Music Deposit check is required each concert session when the music is issued.
The Music Deposit check is held—UNCASHED—until the end of the concert session.
An undated check can be held for the entire performance season–if the Member desires–then returned.
When all music is returned in good condition at the end of each concert, the Music Deposit check is returned to the Member–if he or she wishes.

Singers are expected to dedicate time outside of rehearsals to practice the current repertoire.
Any Member may organize sectionals outside the scheduled Monday rehearsals.
Members are encouraged to bring small recording devices to rehearsals.
The Artistic Director will indicate if recordings are available on YouTube, and which are preferred.
The Secretary generally has rehearsal tracks which can be sent electronically or a Member may bring a blank CD or flashdrive to have the tracks downloaded.

There is a Member’s Only tab on the website, accessible only to Members in Good Standing (concert dues have been paid & Membership Registration completed) with a PCC Chorale log-in.
Members are encouraged to stay up-to-date on current Chorale information by visiting their section of the website often.
