Our Guest Night Program gives interested participants the opportunity to come out to Harmony Hall and participate in
our wekly program. Some of the guests will sit comfortably and observe the evening's agenda unfold. Others may
be familiar with some of the repetoire and can participate with the chorus. Sheet music with words and music score for
those who can read music (not a requirement!) can also be used to help the guest. You may want to listen to the 4 parts of
a quartet and identify which part might be most comfortable for you. Our skilled coaches can tell from your vocal range,
which part might be more suitable. Although we would welcome you as an new member, we realize that you may want to take a
testdrive first. This is what Guest Night is all about. Listen and observe from the audience chairs or climb up on the
risers (the 3-tiered platforms that the chours sings from) and join in a song
Jacques Soucie is responsible for Chapter Development. Jacques can help answer your questions and help orient you

do not read music at all. The learning tracks for an important basis to the learning experience.
